Abstract

Introduction: The 2008 Department of Health White Paper on Pharmacy in England proposed changes to expand the role of pharmacists as primary care providers offering appropriate treatment or advice. They would be expected to recognise the symptoms and signs of common mouth diseases and not overlook serious disorders. It is accepted that all patients with a 4 week history of a non-healing mouth ulcer should be rapidly referred to specialist practitioners for diagnosis as they may have oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
