How OralID™ Screenings Work

During your screening, our dentist carefully examines your mouth for any unusual areas, such as sores, lesions, or irregular patches. We also check the cheeks, gums, tongue, and roof of your mouth for lumps or changes in texture.

The OralID™ device uses a special blue light with fluorescence technology to highlight areas that may not be visible during a standard exam. This advanced tool helps us find abnormalities much earlier than traditional methods.

No extra preparation is needed, and screenings are typically completed during your regular checkups.

Why Oral Cancer Screenings are Important

Oral cancer can affect anyone, but certain risk factors make screenings even more essential, such as:
  • Tobacco use
  • Heavy alcohol use
  • Excessive sun exposure to the lips
  • Human papillomavirus (HPV)
  • Weakened immune system
  • Age over 40
  • Gender (men are at higher risk than women)
Even without these risks, regular screenings remain critical because anyone can develop oral cancer. Early detection helps prevent the disease from advancing and improves treatment success rates significantly.

Benefits of Early Detection
