What we check, and why

Tap any area to see how we gently examine it during your screening. The whole check takes only a few minutes.

Lips

We look at the color and texture of your lips, inside and out, for any sore or patch that has not healed.

We check the top, sides, and tip of your tongue, one of the most common spots to notice early changes.

We lift the tongue to view the floor of your mouth, an area that is easy to miss at home.

We check the inside of both cheeks for white or red patches, lumps, or rough spots.

We examine the hard and soft roof of your mouth for color changes or tender areas.

We take a gentle look toward the back of your mouth and throat.

We feel along your jaw and neck for any swelling or tender lymph nodes.

A thorough, gentle check

  • Covers your lips, tongue, cheeks, and more

Know the signs

Signs worth a mention

Tap any card to learn more. These are simply things worth pointing out at your next visit.

Most of these are harmless and have simple explanations. Still, if any lasts more than two weeks, it is worth a quick check. There is no need to worry, just call.

A mouth sore or ulcer that lasts more than two weeks is worth showing us.

A patch inside the mouth that does not fade on its own is worth a quick look.

Any new lump, thickening, or rough area in the mouth or on the neck.

Mouth or throat soreness, or a hoarse voice, that lingers for weeks.

A feeling that something is caught, or discomfort when you swallow.

New numbness or tenderness anywhere in the mouth, face, or neck.
