Oral Cancer to become Core Subject in Training

Category: Cosmetic dentistry
Oral Cancer to become Core Subject in Training

The General Dental Council is to include the topic of oral cancer in its core curriculum of recommended subjects for the continuing professional development of dentists, hygienists and dental nurses. This is great news for patients, as dentists and hygienists are the best positioned healthcare professionals in the early detection of mouth cancer, and by ensuring dental professionals are well trained and up-to-date in this area the GDC is helping the fight against cancer.

At Ock Street Clinic we take both oral cancer and continuing training very seriously and one of our BDA Good Practice Award pledges is to check for the signs of oral cancer at every patient visit.
