Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screenings are a routine part of your oral exams — a quick and painless way to help protect your long-term health.
What the screening involves
It is a quick and painless examination of the areas along your gums, tongue, and other soft tissues of the mouth to determine if there are any irregularities. Because oral cancer frequently lacks visible symptoms during its early stages, regular screening is essential for early detection.
How often should you be screened?
- Annual screening for individuals who do not use tobacco products.
- Twice-yearly screening for patients who use tobacco.
