Oral Cancer Screening

In Canada, oral cancer is the 13th most common cancer.  The number of new cases and death due to oral cancer is predicted to be almost three times higher than that of cervical cancer and almost double the rates of liver cancer. Oral cancers are also predicted to have higher numbers of new cases and deaths than stomach, brain and ovary cancers.
Oral cancer is any abnormal growth and spread of cells occurring in the mouth cavity including the lips, cheeks, tongue, gums, floor and roof of the mouth, salivary gland and back of the throat.

Early Detection is the Key!

Oral cancer can be successfully treated if caught at an early stage. If not treated early, the cancer can spread to other parts of the body and it then becomes more difficult to treat.

We encourage each patient to have an annual oral cancer screening. The assessment and screening results are immediate.The VELscope procedure is safe, painless, non-invasive, and uses no rinses or stains.
