Free Oral Cancer Screenings – Mouth Cancer Awareness Month

As part of celebrating Mouth Cancer Awareness month, a local dental office in Dorset will welcome patients for free oral cancer screenings.

Patients who have not seen a dentist in more than a year, or those who simply do not have a regular dentist are mostly welcome to join for the screenings.

The free oral cancer screenings will be offered by the Pound-bury dental office in November.

In the UK alone, every single year there are diagnosed as many as 6,000 new cases of oral cancer.

If the oral cancer is diagnosed in its early stage, the chances of curing the disease are well over 90%.

Being aware of your dental health equals being aware of your overall health.

The major oral cancer risks include HPV infection, alcohol, smoking and a poor oral health regimen.

Those who would like to register for a free oral cancer screening are welcome to call at the following number:
