You may have heard of mouth cancer and its link to smoking, but did you know that the late detection of mouth cancer results in a higher proportion of deaths per number of cases than breast cancer, cervical cancer or skin melanoma?
Mouth cancer causes more than 2,000 deaths a year in the UK. It affects the young, old; smokers and non-smokers. The prevalence of the disease has only increased over the past 10 years, yet many have still not heard about it or would fail to recognise the symptoms. In the UK, mouth cancer is diagnosed in more than 6,750 people annually and without early detection, half will die. The good news is early diagnosis saves lives, improving survival rates from half of the cases to more than 90%.
