    Abstract Early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma is treated preferably by wide local tumour excision along with elective neck dissection. The conventional neck dissection leaves an unaesthetic scar, which remains a major challenge that adversely impacts patient satisfaction, their social interactions, and quality of life (QoL). In recent times, retroauricular assisted endoscopic and robotic neck dissection techniques that avoid unaesthetic neck scars have gained popularity. The pitfalls in attaining universal acceptance of these techniques are the need for specialized instrumentation, training, and increased costs. The need for an endoscope or robotic camera when using the retroauricular approach arises mainly while addressing the level I lymph nodes, due to poor access. A combination of transoral and retroauricular approaches that overcomes these factors is presented here, named the transoral retroauricular neck dissection (TREND). The technique successfully avoids a visible neck scar while providing adequate exposure of level I lymph nodes without the need for specialized instrumentation. This approach has been applied, with adequate lymph node clearance achieved in all patients. This novel combination approach of neck dissection is oncologically safe, easy to replicate, and improves patient aesthetics, functional outcomes, and QoL. We recommend that clinicians practice this simple technique and enhance the practice of remote access neck dissection.

    Abstract Background: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a potentially malignant disorder. Although areca nut chewing is an established risk factor, its low prevalence among nut chewers indicates additional factors likely facilitates pathogenesis. We recently demonstrated high fluoride levels in smokeless tobacco products and hypothesized a potential pathological role of fluoride in OSMF. Further exploring this novel role, this study compared fluoride levels in tissue, serum, and saliva samples from OSMF patients and healthy controls.
    Methods: The ethically approved study included 25 clinically confirmed OSMF patients and 25 healthy matched controls. OSMF cases underwent buccal mucosal incisional biopsy, while controls had buccal mucosa tissue sampling during third molar removal. Fasting venous blood and unstimulated saliva were collected. Fluoride levels were analysed using ion chromatography and expressed as median (IQR).
    Results: OSMF cases showed significantly higher fluoride concentrations compared with controls in tissue biopsies (30.1 vs. 0 mg/kg, p < 0.0001), serum (0.4 vs. 0 mg/L, p = 0.005) and saliva (1.3 vs. 0 mg/L, p < 0.0001). Majority (68%) of controls had undetectable fluoride levels across all samples. Tissue fluoride weakly correlated with OSMF severity (r = -0.158, p = 0.334).
    Conclusion: The preliminary findings demonstrated increased tissue fluoride levels in OSMF patients compared with healthy controls. Along with a previous study showing high fluoride content in smokeless tobacco products, these findings provided early evidence suggesting fluoride could play a contributory role in OSMF pathogenesis. Further large-scale investigation is warranted to definitively establish whether the association between fluoride exposure and OSMF is indicative of causation.
