Mouth Cancer Action Month 2019

Taking place throughout November, thousands of amazing people go out into their communities to raise awareness of mouth cancer and share the important message of being mouthaware.

Over the last year, 8,337 people in the UK were given the life-changing news that they have mouth cancer.

These numbers continue to rise while the disease claims more lives than cervical and testicular cancer combined.

The more we know about mouth cancer, the better chance we have of beating it.  This means knowing how to spot mouth cancer early and knowing where to go when we see something out of the ordinary. It also means reducing our risk by cutting down on the things that cause mouth cancer.

At Thorpe Lea Dental, Staines, we carry out oral cancer checks at every examination. For more information, or if you have any concerns please contact us on 01784 454 899 or reception@thorpeleadental.com.
