Summary

This study investigates whether a painless fluorescent light exam can help find early warning signs of oral cancer in adults. Participants complete a health questionnaire and receive a standard oral exam plus a fluorescence scan. The goal is to see if this simple, non-invasive tool improves detection of potentially dangerous mouth lesions, which could lead to earlier prevention and treatment.
