The aim of the self-assessment Mouth Cancer QI Tool is to support Dental Teams to improve their contribution towards early diagnosis of mouth cancer. Once the dental team has completed the toolkit, they should discuss the findings in each section and decide on any further action. The completed sections remain in the practice and do not need to be submitted to HEIW.

If you need further support, please contact your local QI Dental Educator.
