Oral cancer screenings are an essential component of common general dentistry treatments aimed at identifying and diagnosing early signs of oral cancer. Our dentist utilizes advanced techniques to thoroughly examine the oral cavity, including the lips, tongue, gums, throat, and surrounding tissues, for any irregularities or suspicious lesions. By employing their expertise and keen observation skills in conjunction with cutting-edge technology such as VELscope®, dentists can detect even the slightest abnormality that may be indicative of pre-cancerous or cancerous conditions. Through meticulous analysis and follow-up testing, if necessary, dental practitioners play a significant role in ensuring timely detection and treatment options for patients suffering from oral cancers.
