Oral Cancer Screeningin Wesley Chapel, Florida

While some people may not notice symptoms immediately, common signs of oral cancer can include:

• Persistent mouth sores that don’t heal
• Red or white patches on the gums, tongue, or lining of the mouth
• A lump or thickening in the cheek
• Persistent sore throat or hoarseness
• Difficulty chewing, swallowing, or moving the jaw
• Numbness or pain in the mouth or lips

If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule an oral cancer screening with Dr. Hassan to receive a thorough examination and peace of mind.

1. Initial Examination: Dr. Hassan will perform a visual examination of your mouth, tongue, and throat to check for abnormalities or suspicious lesions.
2. Palpation: He will gently feel the tissues in your neck and jaw to detect any unusual lumps or swelling.
3. Additional Testing (if needed): If a suspicious area is found, Dr. Hassan may recommend further diagnostic tests, such as a biopsy or advanced imaging, to confirm a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan.
