“The risk of HPV in the mouth is linked to certain sexual behaviours, such as oral sex, and having a higher number of sexual partners,” stated the charity.

However, it must be noted that the virus is “very common” and usually causes no harm.

“Around eight out of 10 people will be infected with the virus at some point in their lives,” said Cancer Research UK.

There are hundreds of different types of HPV, with only 13 strains causing cancer.
