Dr. Muhammad Sharif Al-Mufti, Professor of Oral, Dental, Implantology and Gum Treatment at Ain Shams Medicine, revealed that the signs of cancer are represented in the presence of mouth ulcers that do not heal with treatment, white ooze, or the appearance of bumps, explaining that the appearance of any of these signs on the patient should go to the oral and dental doctor immediately. .

And the Mufti said, I diagnosed 25 cases in just a year, and all of them were in the late stages of the disease, which represents a big problem, explaining that a tumor may occur in the mouth that works to push the tongue into the mouth and the patient does not leave it without treatment, or an ulcer occurs and results in bleeding and the patient He does not go to the doctor, all these signs predict the presence of cancer in the late stages of the disease, stressing that any abnormal signs that appear in the mouth must go to the hospital immediately.

The professor of mouth and teeth added that if the patient might not pay the treatment expenses, he might go to any hospital affiliated with any governmental university, such as Cairo Dentistry, Ain Shams Dentistry, or any governmental university, as all services are provided free of charge to the patient.

He indicated that if Early detection of tumors We take a sample for analysis in the pathological laboratory, and it is diagnosed and this tumor is completely eradicated in the early stages, and thus we save the patient’s life and do not resort to transferring him to the Oncology Institute, as the late stages of cancer must be treated by the professor of oncology.

He explained that people neglect dental treatment due to the high costs of dental materials and the high costs of dental treatment, so we advise patients to go to university hospitals because treatment there is free, and some are afraid of pain or infection, but following the elimination of virus C, patients are no longer afraid of dentists because Virus C was eliminated following the presidential campaign. 100 million healthy people. There is also sterilization and infection control methods. If you are afraid of the dentist, you can go to university professors because they specialize in this field and have experience in infection control. Patients are treated for free in university hospitals.

He added that there are factors that cause cancer, such as exposure to the sun, which leads to cancer of the lips, as well as infection with viruses, smoking cigarettes, hookahs, and electronic cigarettes, explaining that research has shown that electronic cigarettes are unsafe and not a substitute for regular ones, just as chewing khat used by Yemenis It causes oral cancer, as well as drinking alcohol, and many factors that can be prevented, warning once morest putting our hands in the child’s mouth, as this method transmits viruses to him, as the child’s immunity is weak and causes him infection.

He explained that there are new methods for dental implants, through computer design, with three-dimensional images, and bones from the patient himself can be used if he has lost parts of the jaw bones, from the chin or thigh bones or from other places, and in Germany the bones are taken from the bone Cranium because it is not eroded.

He added that we work within a work team, explaining that we can use bones from a deceased person who donates them before his death, or from animal bones following processing them, or artificial bones, which is the last alternative that we can resort to, and we do not rely on it in mass atrophy, but in some cases He explained that there are different viruses that infect the mouth or different tumors that cause symptoms.

He stressed that there are immune diseases that have spread widely as a result of nervous pressure, and patients do not know that the oral and dental doctor is the one who treats such immune diseases in the mouth, explaining that there are treatment convoys that we carry out for early diagnosis of oral cancer, which is the general direction of the state, because its early detection is its treatment. Simple, because the blood vessels spread in the mouth make the tumors spread very quickly more than other tumors, so the early detection of tumors achieves high cure rates, and the discovery in the late stages exposes the patient to serious complications.
