Advanced Light-Based Cancer Detection for Early Diagnosis and Peace of Mind
Could you be at risk for oral cancer without knowing it? Early detection is key to protecting your oral health. At Kempsville Dental in Virginia Beach, we offer VELscope® oral cancer screening — a non-invasive, painless examination that identifies abnormalities in your mouth’s soft tissues before they are visible. This advanced technology allows our team to catch potential signs of oral cancer early, giving you peace of mind and proactive care.
Detect What Ordinary Exams Might Miss
Traditional visual exams alone may not always reveal precancerous or cancerous lesions.The VELscope® screening uses special blue light to highlight tissue changes that are otherwise undetectable.This advanced tool enhances our oral cancer exams, allowing our team to identify suspect areas at the earliest stage — when intervention is most effective.
How VELscope® Works
During the screening, our clinician shines a safe, blue light inside your mouth using the handheld VELscope® device.Healthy tissues fluoresce in a normal pattern, while abnormal cells appear darker or altered. The process takes only a few minutes, is completely painless, and requires no dyes or contrast agents — making it ideal for routine cancer screening.
