VelScope Device

In addition to the clinical visual examinations that are done for all patients at their recall examinations, we also have the most advanced technology to help diagnose oral cancer. A VelScope, which is a handheld device, helps identify any abnormal cells or suspicious tissues. A bright blue light gets shined into your mouth, which causes the abnormal, possibly cancerous tissues to light up fluorescent in colour with different intensities and darkness detectable to the dentist’s trained eyes.
