October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Following our annual tradition here at Denka, we all dressed in pink for #wearitpink day and enjoyed a Coffee Morning all things pink 💕

A 2017 study revealed that women with gum disease are three times more likely to develop breast cancer – and as a dentist, you don’t need us to tell you about the negative effects cancer treatment can have on oral health. This October, as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it’s in all our interests to raise awareness of the links between the two. You can do your bit by posting on your social channels, displaying posters or sending emails to raise awareness to your patients, as well as reducing their risk by following a good oral care regime!
