Course Description
Oral cancer remains a significant public health concern, with early detection playing a critical role in improving patient outcomes. This course will provide a practical, clinically focused approach to oral cancer screening, emphasizing techniques that can be readily integrated into everyday dental practice. Participants will review risk assessment, head and neck examination, and intraoral evaluation, with a focus on recognizing subtle and early signs of disease. Through case-based discussion and clinical insights, this course aims to enhance diagnostic confidence and support timely identification and referral of suspicious lesions.
