How can I get checked out for oral cancer?

Did you know that dental teams really know their anatomy? From your orbicularis oris to your lateral pterygoid, we know our stuff! We see many patients (& their mouths) every day. We know what’s normal & what’s not! Our clinical team carry out routine screening for oral cancer at every examination but if you are ever concerned about anything that you think is unusual in your mouth, always get it checked out. We would always rather see you than leave it to chance. It is almost always nothing to worry about, but in the unlikely event that it is cancer, then early detection vastly improves the prognosis for patients.
