How are oral cancer checks performed?

During an examination, our dental expert will look for signs of any abnormal cells or growths on soft tissues or hard surfaces within your mouth. A special light may also be used to view areas that are harder to see, and X-rays may be taken should there be any causes for concern.

This procedure is usually painless and takes only a few minutes, but it can take longer if our dentist discovers something suspicious. If anything unusual or abnormal is seen, we may order or perform further tests to investigate.
