Proportion of localized stage cancer was 60.8%-67.5% for tongue and 31.0%-49.5% for gum or floor of mouth. Proportion of distant stage cancer was 0.3%-1.0% for tongue and 2.5%-4.2% for gum or floor of mouth. CONCLUSIONS Age-standardized incidence rate of oral cavity cancer increased, but was not higher than other countries. The proportion of localized stage tongue cancer was higher, while that of distant stage cancer was lower than other sites. Tongue cancer might be easier to detect in its earlier stages than other sites
