Salivaomics is a promising method for the early detection and monitoring of head and neck cancer (HNC). By analyzing salivary proteomics, RNA, and DNA, it identifies biomarkers that distinguish HNC patients from healthy individuals. Saliva's non-invasive, easily collectible nature and affordability make it an advantageous screening tool. Multiomics approaches, which explore genetic mutations, gene expression patterns, protein profiles, and metabolite levels, provide a comprehensive molecular perspective that enhances clinical applicability. The approaches enhance the precision of diagnoses, enable the development and application of targeted therapies, and contribute to the overall advancement of personalized medicine. Despite its potential, larger-scale studies are essential for validating biomarkers, and assessing sensitivity, accuracy, and specificity in detecting HNC. This review highlights salivaomics' potential as a non-invasive, accessible biological sample for early disease detection in HNC and underscores the value of multiomics in advancing this research. Salivaomics offers significant insights into the underlying mechanisms of HNC, enabling the discovery of robust, non-invasive biomarkers for improved disease management.
