Comprehensive Oral Cancer Screenings
Nobody wants to hear that they may have oral cancer. Although it can be fatal, it is easier to treat the earlier it is caught. For this reason, we are proud to assist our patients with an oral cancer screening. We want to help our patients survive this often fatal disease.
Oral cancer will typically show up as white or red patches or lesions inside of your mouth. You may even notice the lesions on your tongue or on the floor of your mouth. Many people experience a hard time swallowing, bleeding in the mouth, or even swelling in your face or neck.
It Is Crucial To Be Conscious About Oral Cancer.
Oral cancer, ranked among the top ten most common cancers worldwide, has made remarkable strides in research, prevention, detection, and treatment. These advancements have greatly improved patient outcomes, with a survival rate exceeding 80% when the cancer is caught early.
Discover The Benefits Of Using The Velscope
Our professional team can now utilize the VELscope® oral cancer screening, which provides a simple, painless, and comprehensive method to examine tissue abnormalities that could potentially indicate the presence of oral cancer or premalignant dysplasia. Although visual inspection and palpation are helpful in assessing tissue health and detecting diseases, the VELscope technology allows us to identify and observe suspicious lesions that might have otherwise been overlooked.
Enhancing And Optimizing The Oral Cancer Screening Process For Better Results.
The VELscope is a portable handheld device that is designed for convenience and portability. It is extremely sensitive to any abnormal changes in the natural tissue fluorescence of the oral mucosa. In other words, the bright blue light of the VELscope can distinguish between healthy soft tissue and soft tissue that has undergone pathological changes in the mouth. This device can detect, assess, and track abnormal soft tissue changes that may be missed otherwise. Therefore, the VELscope is a valuable tool for oral cancer screening.
Cutting-edge Technology And Reliable Care You Can Rely On
We aim to provide exceptional care that enhances both beautiful smiles and overall well-being. During routine checkups, we perform detailed oral cancer screenings using VELscope technology to detect any abnormal tissue changes. We also educate patients on oral cancer signs and symptoms, empowering them to monitor their oral health at home.
