Mouth Cancer Action Month
Mouth Cancer Action Month, run by the British Dental Health Foundation, is a campaign to raise awareness of mouth cancer and its risk factors and the need for early diagnosis to improve survival rates. The campaign is delivered through public relations and media activity and via dental practices, highlighting the risk factors of smoking and alcohol together with the human papilloma virus (HPV) and aims to educate the public on signs and symptoms which should trigger them to visit the dentist under the theme ‘If in Doubt Get Checked Out.’
On-going evaluation takes place throughout and post the campaign to check progress towards achieving objectives. Evaluation of the programme shows increasing impact year-on-year.
