VisiLite Plus Oral Cancer Screening

Oral cancer is one of the most curable diseases when it is caught at its beginning stages.  Your dentist at Northwoods Dental will conduct the recommended annual oral cancer screening using the very latest equipment.

The ViziLite Plus system enables us to identify oral lesions at their earliest stage of development.  Premalignant lesions or early stage oral cancer is treated much more simply and is less invasive.  The success rate for lesions caught early is more than 90%!

Virtually everyone is at risk for oral cancer.  It is imperative that those with increased risk are screened annually(those 40 or older, tobacco users of any age, people with history of oral cancer).

The actual oral cancer screening is quick and painless with the ViziLite Plus technology.  The process is as simple as rinsing with a special solution and then the dentist will will examine your mouth using the specially designed light from VisiLite.  If a suspected lesion is detected, it will be marked with a blue dye and documented.

The oral cancer screening at Northwoods Dental only takes a few minutes and is worth it for a healthier life and your peace of mind.
