Oral cancer is the 13th most diagnosed cancer in Canada and chances of a successful treatment are likely with an early detection. It can be found in the lips, tongue, gums, cheeks, lining, or deeper in jaw bones. Regular visits to a dental professional is the best defense against oral cancer as it is difficult to diagnose by an untrained eye. “During each exam we are trained to look for any signs or abnormalities in the mouth” says Registered Dental Hygienist Balbir Sohi, founder of Smiles on Wheels Mobile Dental Hygiene Care.
