BROMSGROVE dentists have been raising awareness of Cancer.

Worcestershire’s Community Dental Team, run by Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust, has been raising awareness of signs, symptoms and the associated lifestyle risk factors which contribute to mouth cancer, as part of national Mouth Cancer Awareness Month, which ran in November.

The service was urging local residents to be more ‘mouth aware’ and learn to recognise the early warning signs of mouth cancer.

Dentists say that a simple check is often all that’s needed to identify anything out of the ordinary.
