Prevention,: Prevention, Prevention! It could be normal anatomical structure, but because of the smoking history, cancer screening is warranted. If you smoke or use tobacco products, get help to quit (e.g. medication, acupuncture, hypnosis), moderate alcohol consumption and see your dentist regularly for check-ups, cleanings and cancer screening exams.
