Oral Cancer Screening
An oral cancer screening is a careful look at, and feel of, the lips, tongue, cheeks, the floor and roof of the mouth and the part of the throat we can see, for changes that need a closer look.
It can be done as part of a regular exam.
If something needs a closer look
A change that needs a closer look is not a diagnosis. We explain the next step, which may be a biopsy or a referral to a specialist.
