What is Oral Cancer?
Oral cancer affects areas like the lips, tongue, gums, and inner cheeks.
It often starts painlessly and can go unnoticed until advanced.
“Early detection is vital,” making regular check-ups important.
Signs and Symptoms
Look out for “persistent sores that don’t heal,” white or red patches, lumps, numbness, difficulty chewing, or sudden loose teeth.
These signs need professional attention.
Risk Factors and Stages
Tobacco, heavy alcohol use, sun exposure, HPV, and poor oral hygiene increase risk.
Oral cancer develops in stages, from small tumors to deeper tissue invasion.
Prevention and Early Detection
Dentists often find oral cancer during routine exams, highlighting the need for “biannual dental visits.”
Quitting tobacco, limiting alcohol, sun protection, good hygiene, and HPV vaccination help reduce risk.
