What Happens During an Oral Cancer Screening?
During an oral cancer screening, our dentist will:

- Use special tools if necessary to view less visible areas of your mouth.
- Discuss any symptoms you may have experienced, such as sores that don’t heal or persistent sore throat.
What If a Screening Detects Something Unusual?
If a screening reveals any signs of concern:
