In the United States alone, one adult dies every hour from oral cancers. When oral cancers are identified in initial stages, treatment can begin more quickly. In initial stages, treatment has a higher rate of success and is less invasive. In more advanced stages, oral cancers are more likely to have spread to other areas and need complex treatment.
Dr. Payal recommends having an oral cancer screening at least once each year. Regular screenings can help ensure early detection of any potential cancers.
During your oral cancer screening, Dr. Payal will check for any abnormalities. We will closely examine your mouth, throat, lips, gums, and tongue. Let us know about any potential symptoms you have experienced, including:
If you have experienced any of these symptoms for more than a week without improvement, call us immediately for an appointment.
Dr. Payal uses OralID™ in oral cancer screening exams. OralID™ utilizes a special blue light that aids in the detection of potential cancers, pre-cancerous cells, and other abnormal lesions in the mouth. This advanced device provides efficient, effective screening that is more comfortable than many alternate methods.
