ORAL CANCER
Oral cancer appears as growths or sores in the mouth which don’t go away. Risk factors include tobacco (including smokeless chews), heavy alcohol use and HPV (human papillomavirus) infection.
We check on your mouth during your semi-annual visits and will advise if we discover anything unusual. These exams are essential to ensure your dental health, and take remedial action whenever necessary.
You need to be aware of and concerned for any changes in your mouth which seem out of the ordinary. Any sores or swelling which doesn't resolve itself in two weeks must be taken seriously. It is important for you to make an appointment immediately for a thorough examination.
Untreated cancers can spread quickly and become a medical emergency.
