Oral sex, smoking, drinking too much alcohol and a poor diet can all increase your risk of mouth cancer.
But do you know how much your lifestyle is raising your risk of the disease? A new test has been devised to answer that question.
Nine in ten mouth cancers are caused by preventable lifestyle factors, experts warn.

Oral Health Foundation found that more than three in four (78 per cent) of adults were unaware of the effects.
