Oral cancer screenings are quick checks for mouth cancer done by dentists or doctors. They visually examine your mouth for abnormal patches, sores, or lumps on your tongue, cheeks, lips, gums, and roof/floor of your mouth. They also feel your throat and neck for anything unusual. There's no specific screening test, but early detection through these exams is key for successful treatment.
These are usually part of regular dental checkups, but some people with higher risk factors might need them more often.
Prioritizing your oral health and early detection of potential issues is crucial. Villages Dental House offers a welcoming environment focused on patient education and utilizes the latest technology for oral cancer screenings.
