ViziLite is an advanced oral screening tool used to identify abnormal cells along the mucous membranes inside the mouth and throat. The test takes approximately 2 minutes to administer, during which time we will administer a special rinse to the mouth that causes the nuclei of abnormal pre-cancerous or cancerous cells appear to glow when subjected to the ViziLite technology. The light is especially useful in detecting oral cancer in its earliest stages before it has had an opportunity to spread to other tissues. The entire process is quick, painless, and has the potential to help save lives.
Did you know…that ViziLite can greatly reduce the number of false positive and false negative lesions found in dental offices? Clinical studies have shown ViziLite to correctly identify every pre-cancerous and cancerous lesion in patients who were screened. The technology also reduces the number of biopsies ordered by dentists due to normal tissues that appear cancerous to the naked eye, but aren’t. |
