DID YOU KNOW?

Mouth Cancer is a malignant growth which can occur in any part of the mouth, including lips and tongue.  Mouth cancer often appears as a painless mouth ulcer that does not heal normally or, less often, as a red or white patch in the mouth.  Anyone can be affected, but smoking or chewing tobacco as well as heavy drinking greatly increase your risk of mouth cancer.  Early detection is important.
