Introduction: Mouth cancer mainly affects the aerodigestive tracts, the tongue, the floor of the mouth and the lower lip. There is a considerable increase in this condition, making it an important factor in public health. In view of the above, what would be the current epidemiological panorama of oral cancer in Brazil? Objective: To present the perspectives of the epidemiological panorama of oral cancer in Brazil. Method: Descriptive and retrospective cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach, in which data were collected from the Brazilian Health Informatics Department (DATASUS) and analyzed using articles available at Medline (via Pubmed), SciELO and INCA publications. Results: 264,829 cases were reported, of which 72.08% were male, with a predilection for the age group of 50 to 59 years (28.99%) and Caucasian (43.09%). Regarding the deaths, there were 30,563 cases (11.54%), being 77.75% male, 57.07% from 50 to 59 years old and 41.00% Caucasian. Mouth cancer has a high incidence in the Brazilian population, being of multifactorial etiology. In relation to sex, it is attributed to greater exposure to detectable risk factors. Investment in prevention, especially in reducing the consumption of alcohol, tobacco and mitigating the transmission of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) by oral route, is directly related to combating this neoplasia. Conclusion: It is observed that the perspectives are considered promising, as new conditions are created to combat the studied health problem and public policy actions are developed in the country.
