Abstract: Oral cancers are defined as cancers that occur in people’s mouth or back of the throat. The mucosal tissue of the lips and gums, the tongue itself, the root of the tongue, the outer mouth area, the neck, or beneath the tongue can all develop oral cancers. The common type of oral is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common oral cancer, nearly occurrences for 90% of cases. Additional types comprise oral melanoma and adenocarcinoma by area and demography, prevalence rates differ. Monitoring of illness prevalence and disease-specific risk behaviors, mostly alcohol and tobacco use, are the main areas of difficulty. The research intended to observe the impact of psychosocial therapies in conjunction with mandible resection on oral cancer outcomes. We recruited 100 patients with oral cancer who had their mandibles resected. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 28.0 software. To obtain preoperative ratings and up to 12-month postoperative scores using anxiety and depression scale (ADS) for anxiety and depression. The result shows that in 4, 8, and 12 postoperative months, respectively, the number of patients who met the cut-off values for depression and adjustment disorder was achieved. The primary site and marital status were identified as variables influencing the ADS scores by the analysis of variance (ANOVA). Score variances at the preoperative and 12-month postoperative stages were analyzed using ANOVA to find group differences and validate results at a significance level of p < 0.05. Superior results are achieved when marginal mandible resection and psychological psychotherapy are combined as a comprehensive strategy for treating oral cancer.
