Mouth Cancer Action Month – If In Doubt Check It Out
12 October 2012

November is Mouth Cancer Action Month. Did you know that this disease kills more people than testicular and cervical cancer combined?

Smoking is the main cause.  Drinking alcohol to excess is another risk factor.  Early detection can save your life.  Screening for mouth cancer is part of a dental examination here at Lindley Dental.

The dentist is looking for ulcers which do not heal within 3 weeks.  red or white patches or unusual changes.  If you notice any of these symptoms ask one of our denstists’ to check it for you.

The slogan of the campagn is ‘If In Doubt Check It Out’
