Oral Cancer could be found earlier with the effective dental procedure. How many little sores do we find in our mouths? Dozens? Hundreds? More? Most of the time we ignore them, and they simply go away.
The VELscope Vx exam: quick, painless. effective. Adding the VELscope to our diagnostic protocol has been extremely useful and resulted in detection of dangerous lesions that would have otherwise been undetected.
The VELscope Vx helps us identify oral disease early, while it’s still easy to treat. One of the VELscope’s most important tasks is to help locate areas that might, if not treated, progress to oral cancer.
Found early, oral cancer’s 5-year survival rate is good: approx. 83%.
Found late, oral cancer’s 5-year survival rate is poor: approx. 32%.
