Title:

Oral Cancer Screening

Description:

Diagnosing oral cancer at an early stage is crucial to treating it immediately. Some ways that your dentist can screen for presence of abnormal cells in your mouth if you are at a moderate to high risk of cancer include. Toluidine blue rinses: this is a blue colored dye that you are asked to rinse with during an oral cancer screening by your dentist. Abnormal cells in the mouth, if present, absorb the Toluidine blue dye while normal cells do not, indicating their presence in the mouth. This method is not diagnostic for cancer and simply directs the dentist as to where further diagnostic testing such as biopsy is needed. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Rinse the mouth using warm water rinse any

about 10 minutes or until the bleeding stops.
Apply a cold compress to the outside of the
mouth, cheek, or lip near the broken/chipped
tooth to keep any swelling down and relieve pain.

If the crown falls off, make an appointment to
see your dentist as soon as possible and bring
the crown with you. If the tooth is causing pain,
use a cotton swab to apply a little clove oil to
the sensitive area (clove oil can be purchased at
your local drug store or in the spice aisle of
your grocery store). If possible, slip the crown
back over the tooth. Before doing so, coat the
inner surface with an over-the-counter dental
cement, toothpaste, or denture adhesive, to help
hold the crown in place. Do not use regular glue
as it can be poisonous.

Dental Implants
A dental implant is a small titanium screw that
serves as an anchor for the root portion of a
missing tooth. The new implant is fixed into the
upper or lower jaw bone, which gives your
replacement tooth the strength and stability of a
natural tooth.
The Procedure
The procedure for placing a dental implant is
fairly simple. After a thorough examination of
your general and oral health, studying the
relevant X-rays and possibly CT scans (if
indicated), a dental implant of the appropriate
size is selected.
