Mouth Cancer Screening in Edgbaston, Birmingham
Early detection saves lives
Mouth cancer cases are on the rise, making regular screening more important than ever. At Highfield Dental Clinic, mouth cancer screening is included in every routine check-up, helping us detect any abnormalities early when treatment is most effective.
What We Check
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.
What We Check
Risk Factors
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.
Risk Factors
If We Find Something
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.
