Early diagnosis is the key to successful treatment—expert screening, evaluation, and biopsy for accurate and timely detection.
At 4 Squares Dentistry, we provide advanced oral cancer screening and diagnostic services to identify head and neck cancers at the earliest possible stage.
At our dental clinic in Medavakkam, Gowrivakkam, Thoraipakkam & Madipakkam, we effectively treat head and neck cancer that develops in the oral cavity or the throat. Using biopsy along with histology for a definitive diagnosis, we catch cancer as early as possible.
90% of oral cancers start as flat cells on the lips, tongue, and mouth surface. They can easily be mistaken for less serious issues like mouth sores. If any of the following symptoms persist for more than two weeks, consult our specialists immediately.
Mouth sores that don't heal within 2-3 weeks
Unusual discolorations on gums, mouth lining, tonsils, or tongue
Continuous discomfort in mouth, teeth, or jaw
Trouble swallowing food or liquids
Unexplained hoarseness or persistent voice alterations
Swelling or unusual thickening of oral tissues
Difficulty while eating or chewing food
Persistent throat pain that doesn't resolve
Don't wait. Early detection dramatically improves treatment outcomes. Schedule a comprehensive screening today.
We conduct a thorough evaluation of risk factors including tobacco use, alcohol consumption, immunosuppression, and family cancer history. Special attention is given to oral cancer survivors who face higher recurrence risks.
Our specialists assess skin condition and check for structural asymmetry through careful palpation. Advanced techniques like laryngoscopy and pharyngoscopy examine the tongue base, throat, and larynx.
The mucosa (skin lining the mouth and throat) is examined using multiple light sources to detect subtle changes. We may use specialized dyes to highlight suspicious lesions for accurate identification.
When needed, we perform precise biopsies (excisional, incisional, or FNAC) to collect tissue samples for laboratory analysis, providing definitive diagnosis and treatment planning.
