Oral Cancer Screening
A clinical examination to identify suspicious lesions or tissue changes at an early stage.
Care by concern
Mouth ulcers, persistent sores, white or red patches, lumps and abnormal growths may be harmless, but they can also represent precancerous or cancerous change. Early assessment is important.

Oral cancer can affect the tongue, cheeks, gums, lips or floor of the mouth. Risk factors may include tobacco use, alcohol consumption, human papillomavirus and chronic irritation.
Possible symptoms include persistent pain, bleeding, difficulty chewing, numbness or a lesion that does not heal. Early oral cancers may be subtle, making regular screening particularly important for people at higher risk.
Dental Nation provides screening, diagnosis and personalised planning in collaboration with oncology and surgical specialists.
