Why Are Oral Cancer Screenings Important?

Oral cancer is a serious condition that can affect the lips, tongue, cheeks, throat or gums. It often develops without obvious symptoms in its early stages, which is why regular screenings are essential. By identifying abnormal tissue changes early, we can help improve outcomes and ensure timely treatment if needed.

During an oral cancer screening, we will carefully examine your oral tissues for any signs of abnormalities, such as red or white patches, lumps or sores that do not heal. We use advanced tools and techniques to ensure a comprehensive assessment. Our goal is to catch any potential issues early so you can focus on maintaining your health.

Signs and Symptoms of Oral Cancer

While regular screenings are vital, it is also important to recognize potential warning signs of oral cancer, including:

  • Persistent sores or ulcers in the mouth
  • Red or white patches on the tongue, gums or cheeks
  • Unexplained lumps or thickening of oral tissues
  • Difficulty swallowing or persistent sore throat
  • Numbness or pain in the mouth or jaw
  • Changes in voice or speech

If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to schedule an appointment for an evaluation.
