The American Cancer Society estimates that nearly 30,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with oral cancer each year. Most frequently found in the tongue, the lips and the floor of the mouth, this type of cancer can also show signs in the gums, the minor salivary glands, the lining of the lips and cheeks, the roof of the mouth or the area behind the wisdom teeth. Early detection creates the best chance of successfully combating the disease.
