Tongue Cancer Risk Uncovered!
Researchers have shown that a link between long standing gum disease and the risk
of tongue cancer exists. Frightenly 50% of the adult population has signs of early
gum disease and do not even know it!
This study , from the University of Buffalo, Suggests that the risk of tongue cancer
is increased 5 fold with every millimeter of bone loss due to gum disease.
Many people have early gum disease that is untreated . This could be completely
avoided.
With good oral Hygiene habits, regular visits to our dental office, there is no reason
for people to be at risk like this.
Dr J Basrai and his team at Smile and FACE Studios @ Chafford 100 Dental routinely
screen patients for gum disease and oral cancer. Any signs and symptoms are treated
and monitored very carefully.
If you have bleeding after brushing or flossing, red or swollen gums, bad breath,
receding gums, loosening teeth or pus around the gums-you should come in for a check up!
