A Public Education Program in Self-Examination for Orofacial Cancer

Grabau, John C.; And Others

Journal of the American Dental Association, 96, 3, 480-4, Mar 78

Instruction in self-examination for early detection of orofacial cancer was given to more than 450 persons at the Erie County (New York) Fair to familiarize the public with the technique. Results of followup studies of participants and program experience suggest that it is feasible to implement the instruction on a large scale. (MF)
