A Devizes dentist practice is offering free oral health checks until the end of November as part of Mouth Cancer Action Month.

Anyone can ring 01380 725225 to book an appointment at Ferndale Dental Clinic, regardless of whether or not they are registered as patients.

Dentist Martin Cox said: β€œThe disease is very serious and is on the increase. As always, early detection is the key – dentists will check for any suspicious signs at the routine check-up so regular attendance is vital.”
