April Is Oral Cancer Awareness Month

Did you know that April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month? Over 51,500 people are diagnosed with cancers of the mouth, throat, tonsils and tongue each year according to MouthHealthy.org, the ADA’s consumer website. While performing your daily oral hygiene routine, keep an eye out for any sores that aren’t healing. If they don’t heal within two weeks, you should see your dentist to get checked out.
