_Concerns about oral cancer:_

1. _Consult a dentist or oral surgeon_: Schedule an appointment to evaluate the ulcer and your dental issues.
2. _Biopsy (if necessary)_: If the dentist suspects something unusual, they might recommend a biopsy to rule out oral cancer.

4. _Address dental issues_: Get your broken teeth and dental issues treated to prevent further complications.

_Oral cancer screening:_
