Door Step Oral Screening & Testing (DOST)
The DOST project focuses on conducting community-level mass screenings for oral premalignant disorders (OPMD) among tobacco users residing in rehabilitation colonies in Chandigarh. The project aims to identify all risk factors associated with oral cancer, provide optimal screening for the population, and ensure adequate management of high-risk individuals.
