OralID™ Screening

How OralID™ Oral Cancer Screenings Work

During your visit, our dentist carefully examines your mouth for any irregularities, including sores, lesions, or unusual patches. We also check your cheeks, gums, tongue, and the roof of your mouth for lumps or changes in texture.

What makes OralID™ different is its fluorescence technology. Using a special blue light, we can highlight areas that might not be visible with a traditional exam. This allows us to spot potential concerns early, often before you experience any symptoms.

Screenings require no special preparation and are typically done during your routine checkups.

Why Oral Cancer Screenings are Essential

Oral cancer can affect anyone, but certain factors increase the risk, including:
  • Tobacco use
  • Heavy alcohol consumption
  • Excessive sun exposure to the lips
  • Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
  • Weakened immune system
  • Age over 40
  • Gender (men are more at risk than women)
Even if you don’t have these risk factors, regular screenings remain vital. Early detection greatly improves treatment success and can prevent the cancer from spreading or becoming more advanced.

The Importance of Early Detection

Finding oral cancer early often means the cancer is still in a lower stage, making it easier to treat effectively. Studies show early detection not only increases survival rates but also reduces the need for aggressive treatments later on.

Routine screenings at Kyle Parkway Dentistry give you the opportunity to address potential problems before they become serious, ensuring you can maintain your health and quality of life.
