Oral Cancer Screenings Chula Vista, CA

Early detection saves lives.

At Kaneda Bajwa Dental, your health and well-being are our top priorities. That’s why we offer OralID® Oral Cancer Screening—a quick, painless, and non-invasive technology that helps detect early signs of oral cancer and other abnormalities that might not be visible to the naked eye.

Why Oral Cancer Screening Matters

Oral cancer is a serious condition that affects thousands of people each year. When caught early, oral cancer has a significantly higher survival rate and can often be treated with less invasive procedures. Unfortunately, many cases go undetected until they are in an advanced stage. That’s why routine screenings are crucial, even for individuals with no symptoms or risk factors.

What Is OralID®?

OralID® is a handheld device that uses fluorescence technology to detect abnormal cells in the oral cavity. During a screening, your dentist will shine a special blue light into your mouth. Healthy tissues appear bright and green, while abnormal tissues—including potentially cancerous or pre-cancerous areas—appear dark.

This enhanced visualization allows us to identify suspicious lesions or irregularities long before they become noticeable through standard visual exams.

Quick, Easy, and Comfortable

• Takes less than 2 minutes
• No rinses, dyes, or discomfort
• Safe and effective for all patients
• Performed during your routine checkup

Who Should Get Screened?

Everyone can benefit from an OralID® screening, but it is especially important if you:

• Use tobacco or alcohol
• Have a history of HPV (Human Papillomavirus)
• Have a family history of oral cancer
• Are over the age of 40
• Have persistent mouth sores, lumps, or voice changes

Peace of Mind Starts with Prevention
