Tooth sensitivity – Tooth sensitivity is tooth pain due to a wearing away of the tooth's surface or gum tissue. People with sensitive teeth experience pain or discomfort from sweets, cold air, hot drinks, cold drinks or ice cream. Some people with the condition even experience discomfort from brushing and flossing. Sensitive teeth can usually be treated successfully. It is important to keep your mouth clean to prevent unhealthy bacteria sticking to your teeth and causing dental problems. |

Oral cancer - Oral cancer is a cancerous tissue growth located in the oral cavity. Oral cancers may originate in any of the tissues of the mouth. It may also occur on the floor of the mouth, cheek lining, gums or roof of the mouth. Smoking and other tobacco use are associated with about 75 percent of oral cancer cases, caused by irritation of the mucous membranes of the mouth from smoke and heat of cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. Alcohol drinking is another high-risk activity associated with oral cancer. |
