    OralID™ Oral Cancer Screening

    More than 480,000 new cases of oral and throat cancers are diagnosed each year, and over 35,000 of those cases are right here in the United States. Oral cancer kills one person every hour in the U.S., and without proper detection methods, a person may have oral cancer and not even know it. In almost all cases of oral cancer, early detection plays a major role in a patient’s chances of survival. By diagnosing and treating oral cancer early, a patient’s five year survival rate is 80-90% greater.

    Dr. David - Bolton, MA Dentist - VELscope Oral Cancer ScreeningRisk factors for oral cancer include:

    • Frequent use of tobacco products (cigarettes, cigars, pipes, chewing tobacco)
    • Excessive consumption of alcohol
    • Genetics (a family history of oral cancer or any type of cancer)
    • Excessive exposure to the sun at a young age

    While men above the age of 50 are typically at the most risk for oral cancer, there has been a recent increase in the number of women with oral cancer due to a connection between oral cancer and the human papilloma virus (HPV-16).

    How OralID works

    OralID uses fluorescence technology to aid in the visualization of oral cancer, pre-cancer and other abnormal lesions.
