Like cigarettes, smokeless tobacco is a serious risk to a person’s health. Both contain nicotine which is a very addictive drug. In fact, there is twice as much nicotine in smokeless tobacco as in an average cigarette. As well as increasing the risk of mouth cancer by up to four times, it causes problems for the heart by tightening blood vessels and raising blood pressure. One can of chewing tobacco can release as much nicotine into your body as 60 cigarettes. Find out more about mouth cancer risks factors at www.mouthcancer.org (link in profile) #Mouthaware #tobacco #smokelesstobacco #chewingtobacco #mouthcanceraction #smoking #mouthcancer #mouthcanceractionmonth #oralhealth #oralhealthfoundation #illustration #information

HPV is very common and almost every sexually active person will get HPV at some point in their life. Most people with HPV never develop symptoms or health problems. 90% of HPV infections go away by themselves within two years and don’t affect the health of most people. However, sometimes HPV infections persist and may cause a variety of serious problems including abnormal tissue growth and other changes to cells in some parts of the body, which can cause cancer. Despite HPV’s impact on the health of both sexes, the UK’s HPV immunisation programme is exclusively for females due to its link with cervical cancer. In the UK, girls ages 12 and 13 have been routinely vaccinated since 2008. We are working hard, alongside other bodies and associations to readdress this inequality and fight for a gender neutral vaccination. You can find out more about HPV and the gender vaccine on our website at www.mouthcancer.org (link in profile) and at www.hpvaction.org #mouthcanceraction #HPV #HPVvaccine #Mouthaware #mouthcancer #mouthcanceractionmonth #oralhealth #oralhealthfoundation #illustration #health #didyouknow

From everyone at the Oral Health Foundation, we would like to say a huge thank you for helping us to raise awareness of mouth cancer – your donations are truly valued and warmly received. Thanks to your donations we have been able to provide more information and support for children, the elderly and vulnerable people living with special needs, and those living in deprivation around the UK, than ever before. As inequalities in oral health continue to grow, and with incidences of mouth cancer on the rise, our role as a leader in oral health education and preventative action becomes ever more crucial.

In 2006, Gordon Mullen knew something wasn't right in his mouth, yet he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. Fortunately for Gordon, during a routine check-up his dentist could. You can read Gordon's story over on our website at www.mouthcancer.org (link in profile) along with survivor testimonies from David, Rachel, Victor, Christine, Tracey and Sally. We're so thankful to them all for sharing their inspirational stories with us. If you have an ulcer that doesn't heal within three weeks, red and white patches in the mouth, or unusual lumps or swellings in the mouth or head and neck area, then please see your dentist immediately. #mouthcancer #oralhealth #mouthcanceraction #mouthcanceractionmonth #dentist #oralhealthfoundation #Mouthaware #ulcer #ulcers #lumps #swellings #patches #ifindoubtgetcheckedout
