More than two-thirds of oral cancer cases are diagnosed in the later stages.* Not only do these patients face a lower chance of survival, but treatment in the later stages is often highly disfiguring and debilitating.

At Vigilant Biosciences we are dedicated to saving lives by providing world-class early detection solutions for cancer.

When patients come in for routine dental check-ups, providers should take the opportunity to discuss lifestyle habits that can increase the risk of oral cancer. These include:

Smoking & smokeless to***co: 10x increased risk
Alcohol use: 5x-30x increased risk
HPV: up to 80% of people will be exposed
Age: 3x increased risk over 50 years old
Gender: 2x increased risk in men

With 54,000 new cases each year, oral cancer is currently the 8th deadliest cancer for men. In fact, men have a 1 in 60 lifetime probability of developing oral cancer. In order to combat the projected increase in oral cancer cases, dental providers must be on the lookout for early warning signs and symptoms.

According to the Oral Cancer Foundation, to***co use in all of its forms is number one on the list of risk factors for true oral cavity cancers in people over 50. Historically at least 75% of those diagnosed at 50 and older have been to***co users. Find out how Vigilant Biosciences is working to improve oral cancer outcomes:

The standard method of diagnosing oral cancer takes the “watch and wait” approach, as it may take an extended period of time to have enough evidence for a firm diagnosis. However, this inevitably delays time to diagnosis and can lead to poorer outcomes. By providing a convenient early-stage risk assessment, Vigilant Biosciences is transforming the oral cancer diagnostic process.

Once oral cancer has progressed to stages III and IV, treatment protocols must be aggressive in order to avoid further metastasis. Patients will likely undergo chemotherapy, radiation, and/or reconstructive surgery. The side effects can be life-altering and even debilitating:

Difficulty eating, drinking & swallowing
Damaged salivary glands or facial muscles
Reduction in blood circulation
Tooth decay or bone death
Other major side effects
