Oral Cancer Screening in Rockford IL

Detect Oral Cancer Early with Oral ID

OralID is a battery-operated, hand-held oral examination light used as an adjunctive device for oral mucosal screening. The device emits a visible blue light (435-460 nm) that shines directly into the oral cavity.

Wearing the special OralID eyewear enhances the visual effects of the blue light during the oral exam. When the blue light from OralID shines on healthy oral tissue, it fluoresces green. However, when it shines on abnormal tissue, it appears dark due to a lack of fluorescence. This tool will prove to be invaluable when it comes to the early detection of oral cancer.
