Descriptions: This one-hour continuing education course for dental hygienists focuses on the recognition
and management of precancerous and cancerous oral lesions. Through case studies drawn from clinical practice, participants will learn to differentiate between benign and suspicious lesions requiring biopsy and develop skills for patient counseling and referral.

The session highlights practical strategies for assessing patient risk, identification of early
warning signs, and collaboration within the dental team to optimize patient outcomes.

Objectives:

  • Distinguish between benign, precancerous, and cancerous oral lesions using
    clinical assessment and case-based learning.
  • Apply evidence-based guidelines to determine when biopsy and referral are
    indicated for suspicious lesions.
  • Communicate findings to patients effectively, including educating them about oral
    cancer risks, follow-up recommendations, and appropriate referrals.
