How Oral Cancer Screenings Work

During your screening, we carefully examine your mouth, including your lips, tongue, gums, and throat, for any unusual lumps, lesions, or discolorations. If needed, we may recommend further evaluation or tests to ensure your peace of mind. With advanced tools and expert care, our team makes your health and safety a priority.

Why Oral Cancer Screenings with Breeze?

Oral cancer screenings are especially important for individuals with risk factors such as tobacco or alcohol use, a history of HPV, or prolonged sun exposure. However, even those without risk factors benefit from regular screenings. At Breeze, we’re committed to helping you maintain not just your smile but your overall health, one visit at a time.
What happens during an oral cancer screening?
Your dentist will visually and physically examine your mouth, lips, tongue, and throat for any unusual signs, such as lumps, lesions, or discoloration.
Who should get an oral cancer screening?
Screenings are recommended for all adults, especially those with risk factors like tobacco or alcohol use, HPV, or a family history of cancer.
How often should I get screened for oral cancer?
