Oral cancer is tricky. It can sometimes be asymptomatic so that patients are unaware
that there is anything to worry about and it can sometime create symptoms that
can be mistaken for another condition. It's extremely important to be screened
regularly for oral cancer and also to visit our dentist in order to ensure that
there is nothing to worry about. Remember, the earlier the oral cancer is
diagnosed, the better your chances of survival.Some symptoms or signs of oral cancer include:
- Mouth sores that do not heal
- Lumps or thinking of lips and mouth tissues
- Loose teeth for unexplained reasons
- Pain of the jaw, including stiffness
- Difficulty chewing or speaking
Over 43,000 people in the United States will be newly diagnosed with oral cancer in 2015. In honor of oral cancer awareness month, please help us spread awareness of the disease. Schedule your screening today! It could save your life.\
