Introduction: Oral cancer represents some 2% of all new cases worldwide that may arise in a human body and it is considered a serious public health problem. The resection of malignant tumors can result in anatomical defects. Post-resection management of such defects can bring back the physical and anatomical form of the facial structure lost to a certain extent. Objective: Aim of this study is to evaluate the awareness among dental students about reconstructive surgery. Methods: In this study, we evaluate the awareness of reconstructive surgeries and the flaps available for those surgeries among a group of dental students. In this study, we found students about (65%) were aware of the term obturator and its use. Results: In this study that the student understands reconstructive surgery is performed to restore the form and function of lost structures during cancer resection, students also responded yes (95) to the question about the term anastomosis. In overall association, we found there is less awareness about reconstructive surgery among undergraduate dental students. Conclusion: This study concluded that only postgraduates show adequate knowledge about reconstructive surgery which implicates the need for including research and studies about oral cancer and its reconstruction to undergraduates which can change their view about oral cancer management.
