Why Oral Cancer Screenings Are Important

According to the Oral Cancer Foundation, nearly 54,000 Americans are diagnosed with oral cancer each year. The earlier it’s caught, the higher the survival rate. Unfortunately, many cases are not discovered until later stages, when treatment becomes more difficult.

Oral cancer screenings at Fort Myers Dental Arts are quick, painless, and can make a lifesaving difference.

Risk Factors for Oral Cancer

Oral cancer can affect anyone, but certain factors increase risk, including:

Even if you don’t have risk factors, regular screenings are essential. Many cases occur in patients with no history of smoking or drinking.

How Often Should Screenings Be Done?

We recommend an oral cancer screening at least once a year as part of your regular dental exam. Patients with higher risk factors may benefit from more frequent screenings.

What We Look For During a Screening

During your screening, Dr. Chouraqui or Dr. Streater will carefully examine your:

  • Lips, cheeks, and tongue
  • Roof and floor of the mouth
  • Throat and tonsils
  • Jaw and neck for lumps or swelling


We look for signs such as:

  • Red or white patches
  • Persistent sores or ulcers
  • Lumps or thickened tissue
  • Difficulty swallowing or changes in speech


If anything unusual is found, we’ll guide you through the next steps, which may include further testing or a referral to a specialist.
