Early detection saves lives
Mouth cancer cases are on the rise, making regular screening more important than ever. At Goldthorn Dental Practice, mouth cancer screening is included in every routine check-up, helping us detect any abnormalities early when treatment is most effective.

During screening, your dentist carefully examines the soft tissues of your mouth, including your tongue, cheeks, floor of mouth, palate, and throat. We look for unusual lumps, red or white patches, and non-healing ulcers.
Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, HPV infection, and prolonged sun exposure are risk factors. However, mouth cancer can affect anyone, which is why routine screening is important for all patients.
Most abnormalities are benign, but if we identify anything concerning, we'll refer you promptly to a specialist for further investigation. Early detection dramatically improves treatment outcomes.
