OralCDx®
Oral cancer testing in Los Angeles can be performed at our practice. This is done through means of advanced technology such as the OralCDx® BrushTest®. The BrushTest® is a quick and pain-free method that Los Angeles dentists use to test the small white and red spots found in patients’ mouths. The BrushTest® determines if those spots, once tested, contain abnormal cells. These cells, if left alone, undiagnosed, or untreated, may potentially develop into oral cancer. Through using the OralCDx® BrushTest®, dentists have spotted over 10,000 malignant spots before they could’ve caused any real harm to patients.
What Is The BrushTest®?
The BrushTest® obtains a small sample of an oral spot. It requires no anesthesia and no pain to the patients, with little-to-no bleeding at all. The sample is then analyzed in a lab with experienced pathologists. The results are then faxed over to your dentists and results kept confidential.

Common Oral Spot Testing
Most patients naturally have minuscule white or red spots in their mouth and are generally harmless. However, with testing through BrushTest®, it can help determine if those spots are actually signs of potential cancer. If an abnormal cell is found, it usually takes years before symptoms surface but by receiving oral cancer testing in Los Angeles, you reduce those chances of risk!
