Cancer Pathology Screenings

Dental Implants in Chicago

The inside of a healthy person’s mouth is smooth and pink in appearance. Any significant alterations or lesions that appear could be a sign of a pathological process or cancerous growth. It is strongly recommended that patients and general dentists regard these areas with urgency. During a screening, our team may perform a biopsy (the removal of a suspicious area of tissue) and transfer the sample to the pathology lab for evaluation. Early detection allows for effective treatment and prevention of further harm.

Common symptoms of oral cancers/pathological processes that patients should look for during routine self-evaluations include the following:

  • Oral sores that bleed easily and/or are excessively slow to heal.
  • Lumps, crusts, or thickened areas on the lining of your mouth.
  • Red or white patches on your soft tissue.
  • Difficulties with chewing and/or swallowing properly.
  • Chronic sore throat/hoarseness.
