The American Cancer Society reports more than 30,000 people are diagnosed with oral or oropharyngeal cancer each year.<\/h3><\/div>

Almost 10,000 people die each year due to the disease. If oral cancer detection occurs in the early stages, the survival rate is 80-90%.<\/b><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the detection of most oral cancers happen in the late stages, so the death rate is high at 45% within five years of diagnosis. Consistent annual appointments are crucial to spotting the signs early.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
