As our patient, you will receive an oral cancer assessment annually at our Fort Walton Beach dental office. We use VELscope and also ViziLite Plus with TBlue 630 oral cancer detection methods. Both are safe, convenient, and effective diagnostic and marking systems. With the VELscope a doctor or dental hygienist will simply look in your mouth with this special imaging device that can visually identify oral cancer lesions. With Vizilite, you will simply rinse with a special solution, and then we’ll examine your mouth’s soft tissues with the help of a low-energy light. The solution makes underlying oral cancer cells visible as white patches.

We mark the white patches with TBlue 360, a safe dye that will show us where the suspect areas are after we remove the low-energy light. We will then take intraoral photographs to keep on file and send to your dental or medical insurance carrier.
