According to the present invention, the possibility of oral leukoplakia or submucous fibrosis which causes white lesions to appear inside the oral cavity can be predicted and diagnosed, thereby being useful in eliminating the potential risks of oral cancer by early prediction of progression into oral precancer or oral cancer for which effective treatment does not currently exist.
