Leucoplakia can be treated easily. You should consult to dentist for treatment of leukoplakia. If it will be treated right now then it can not be developed in cancer you should not be worry. If you are taking tobacco or alcohol in any form quite them immediately. Maintain oral hygiene. Avoid spicy food.

If you quit khaini 100% then the treatment will work and all leucoplakias do not convert into cancer. But risk will be for life long. So to reduce risk you must be on medications and observation by an oral medicine/ oral pathologist/ oral surgeon specialists for at least 3-5 years from now. If the problem subsides, your problem can be assumed to be on lesser and lesser risk.
