Mouth Cancer Action Month 2014 – take a #BlueLipSelfie!

Get involved with MCAM 2014 and our exciting Blue Lip Selfie campaign to help raise awareness of mouth cancer!

This year we’ve launched our Blue Lip Selfie campaign in association with the British Dental Health Foundation, where you can upload a selfie wearing blue lipstick or add blue lips to a photo using our BlueLipSelfie app. Check out #BlueLipSelfie on twitter to see the latest blue lip snaps!

Mouth cancer can have many different symptoms including:

  • A mouth ulcer that doesn't heal within three weeks
  • Red or white patches in the mouth or throat
  • Unusual lumps or swellings
  • Pain or difficulty swallowing
  • Teeth that become loose for no obvious reason
  • Bleeding or numbness within the mouth
  • Changes in the voice
