Oral Cancer Screenings

Oral cancer is a type of cancer that often goes unnoticed because it has very few signs and symptoms that patients notice. This is why New York Dental Studioperforms oral cancer screenings during each routine visit here in our East 50th Street office.

Our patients who have a bi-annual dentist visit also receive a screening for oral cancer by Dr. Brandon Huang. He looks for signs of cancer on the tongue, gums, inside and outside the mouth, cheeks and lips. The exam goes as follows:

1) Patients are asked to remove any partials or dentures.

2) Dr. Huang looks at the outside of their face, cheeks, lips, neck and mouth for sores and other signs of oral cancer.

3) He then feels underneath the jaw and neck for lumps.

4) He inspects the inside of the mouth next, starting with the cheeks and lips.

5) He thoroughly exams the tongue, followed by the roof and floor of the mouth.

6) Finally, the gums are looked at carefully for signs of oral cancer.

Oral cancer is more treatable when it is caught early. We provide oral cancer screenings for every patient, regardless of their age. If we find a lump or sore, we order more tests to confirm the diagnosis. If you haven’t had an oral cancer screening recently, or ever, contact us directly at (212) 588-1809 to schedule an appointment for this important preventative screening.
