Introduction Awareness Week Background Protocols ... Support Groups :: SELF-AWARENESS IS THE KEY TO EARLY DETECTION :: Dr Vinod K Joshi " Cancer can occur in any part of the mouth, tongue, lips and throat. Mouth cancers have a higher proportion of deaths per number of cases than breast cancer, cervical cancer or skin melanoma. The mortality rate is just over 50%, despite treatment, with about 1,700 deaths per year in the UK. This is because of late detection. There has been a 17% increase in cases from 3,673 (1995) to 4,304 (1999). An increasing number of young people are being affected and 25% of the cases have no associated significant risk factors. "

Oral contraceptives containing the hormones estrogen and progestin have been on the market for over 35 years. Those formulated before 1975 were more likely to have higher doses of both, but since 1975 they have had lower doses to reduce side effects and the risk of vascular disease.

127. Latest Mouth Cancer Treatments What is Mouth cancer? cancer of the mouth, or oral cavity , includes that extending back as far as behind the last molar ( wisdom tooth ). http://www.cancergroup.com/em29.html

M O U T H C A N C E R The mouth is an amazing machine for speech and eating, it actually starts the process of digestion. Normally good mouth hygiene ensures healthy teeth, and a lifetime of trouble free chewing (the muscles of the jaw are the strongest of the body). Occasionally people develop a cancer in the mouth. From a cancer doctor perspective, the mouth is anything forward of the last molar, up to the lips. This includes the part of the tongue we see in the mirror, the hard palate, and the inside of the cheeks. Anything behind the last molar is called "oropharynx" and is a different area which includes the tonsils and base of tongue. Cells in the mouth are subjected to lots of injury from heat and abrasion, and thus must divide frequently to replace those lost due to injury and old age. Normally, cells divide quickly as we develop in the womb and through infancy, and then the rate slows down considerably, just to replace cells that die. The division of cells in the mouth and elsewhere is under very tight control, regulated by the genes within the cells. When this control is lost, the cells may start to divide in a haphazard, uncontrolled manner, and grow to form a swelling of abnormal cells, called a " tumor ". A "

Recent Survey Results Probably the second most common observation we have made is that patients arrive at our clinic with thousands of dollars worth of testing that was completely unnecessary. Indeed, and this is especially true in large institutions, once a patient is found to have a "thyroid problem" they are immediately herded to a clinic that performs a battery of routine testing without regard for the individual patient's needs. This may be convenient for the institution, but it can be costly, invasive, painful, and often times unnecessary. Our clinic has thrived for more than fifty-four years as an extension of a medical center practice that began in 1949. The reason for this success is that each patient's diagnostic and treatment plan is carefully constructed to fit individual needs.

What is cancer of the lip and oral cavity? Cancer of the lip and oral cavity is a disease in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the tissues of the lip or mouth. The oral cavity includes the front two thirds of the tongue, the upper and lower gums (the gingiva), the lining of the inside of the cheeks and lips (the buccal mucosa), the bottom (floor) of the mouth under the tongue, the bony top of the mouth (the hard palate), and the small area behind the wisdom teeth (the retromolar trigone). Cancers of the head and neck are most often found in people who are over the age of 45. Cancer of the lip is more common in men than in women, and is more likely to develop in people with light-colored skin who have been in the sun a lot. Cancer of the oral cavity is more common in people who chew tobacco or smoke pipes.

133. Cancer Of The Mouth And Throat Information from the Calgary Regional Health Authority in Canada. http://www.crha-health.ab.ca/hlthconn/items/oral-ca.htm

Cancer of the Mouth and Throat Cancer of the mouth (oral cancer) includes cancers on the lips, gums, tongue, salivary glands and the roof or floor of the mouth (check the Canadian Cancer Society web site for the most up to date statistics ). Cancer cells growing in these areas of the mouth may spread to the lymph nodes in the neck and into the jaw bones. Early detection and treatment are extremely important for the current forms of treatment to be most effective. "When oral cancer in any form is detected and treated early, the outlook is good, resulting in a cure in three quarters of cases." * Any lump, sore, ulcer or discolored spot in the mouth that does not go away in 2-3 weeks should be assessed by a doctor. Symptoms such as persistent sore throats, sores under dentures, difficulty chewing or swallowing or a lump on the neck also require medical evaluation. What causes oral cancer? As with other forms of cancer, the direct cause of mouth cancer is not yet clear. Research continues on many fronts to find the key to why cells in various organs and tissues of the body begin a pattern of uncontrolled growth (i.e. become cancerous). With mouth cancers, however, we do know that there are several factors that contribute significantly to their development: smoking tobacco products especially pipes and cigars (but ANY tobacco products can cause cancer!)
