An Oral Cancer Screening is a crucial preventive service instrumental for the early detection of oral cancer. This simple, quick procedure is typically performed during a routine dental visit. The dentist examines your mouth for any signs of cancer or precancerous conditions, looking for lumps, irregular tissue changes, or other abnormalities. The screening involves a visual inspection and palpation of the mouth, including the tongue, cheeks, and the roof and floor of the mouth. It is recommended for adults, especially those at higher risk for oral cancer, such as tobacco and alcohol users. Early detection through regular screenings is vital, as it dramatically increases the chances of successful treatment and can be life-saving.
