What’s in Your Toolkit to Aid in the Earlier Discovery of Oral Cancer?

An interactive hands-on workshop designed to equip today’s
dental clinician with the skill set to recognize and identify the
earliest warning signs of HPV and non-HPV oropharyngeal
cancer. Breakout sessions will involve hands-on use of
adjunctive screening devices, AirPlay mirroring of a live
examination and the review of techniques, extraoral and
intraorally, to provide your practice with the best possible
opportunity for earlier discovery of oral cancer. Learn to
perform a systematic extraoral and intraoral examination with
attention to high risk anatomical areas related both to HPV
and non-HPV oropharyngeal cancer. Be able to recognize
the subtle, life-saving early signs and symptoms that may
accompany HPV oropharyngeal cancer. The session will review
clinical resources that will aid in assessment, documentation
and management pathways of an abnormal finding.
