VELscope Vx

We’re excited to introduce all kinds of new technology in our practice! Now, we can detect oral cancer with the VELscope® Vx exam during a routine hygiene exam in about two minutes!

The VELscope® Vx Enhanced Oral Assessment System centers on a handheld scope that is used by dentists to help visualize oral tissue abnormalities, including cancer and pre-cancer.

The VELscope® Vx system is an adjunctive device which means it must be used together with and as a supplement to the traditional intra and extraoral head and neck exam. Unlike other adjunctive devices used for oral examinations, the VELscope® Vx does not require any dyes or prolonged testing procedures.
