DMB... The link you posted is for old information. It was published almost 2 years ago. There have been recent advances which could make the info completely obsolete.

OCF has its own newsfeed that is free to sign up for. The newsfeed will give you all the latest oral cancer advances and articles sent directly to your email. You can also go to the main OCF pages and read thru articles too.

Im elaborating on the private message, always watch the dates prior to posting. Things can change quickly around here and sometimes after only a couple weeks the entire thread has already run its course and is "old".
