Welcome to a Website dedicated for 
Oral Cancer Awareness

We at Sangeeta Darvekar Charitable Trust are putting all our efforts in fighting against the evils of oral cancer.

We Are have come out with a video CD on oral cancer awareness

We have come out with a Video CD on Mouth Cancer Awareness with interviews of leading doctors and patients suffering from oral cancer. This video is shot in Hindi and is of 30 minutes duration. It is freely duplicable. You can order the same by sending DD of Rs 50/- only to Sangeeta Darvekar Charitable Trust  payable at mumbai and the address is 602/A, sealand tower, jesal park, Bhayandar east, Mumbai 401105 India. We will shortly come out in all vernacular languages but we are short of funds for the same. Please  support our endeavour but sending donation at the above mentioned address.

We are extremely thankful to TATA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, Mumbai for all the help they have provided specially Dr.Ketayun Dinshaw, Dr Surendra Shastri, Dr Anil D'Cruz,  Mr. Humayun Jafri and Mr. Uday Gadgil.

Oral cancer is the most common cancer in India and according to Dr Geoff Craig “People are dying of oral cancer because of ignorance”.

  Dr Surendra Shastri head of preventive oncology at TATA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL  gave us a stunning information that "There are about 8,00,000 new cases of cancers ever year in India out of which tobacco related cancers are about 4,00,000. Cost of treatment of oral cancer is about 3.5 lakh. This can be completely prevented by simple changes in lifestyle and regular screening and even have health benefits that reach beyond cancer. About 2200 deaths a day in India is tobacco related.

According to the B.B.C ‘4 in 10 of all cancers in India are oral cancers’.


This is Dr Suwas Darvekar who is a Dentist and is the force behind this awareness campaign.
