While waiting, patients will receive education on oral health and hygiene. Additionally, a limited number of dental hygiene products will be distributed.


All patients who complete the oral cancer screening will automatically be entered into a raffle for a chance to win cash prizes, with a total value of up to $500, generously provided by the Yap Cancer Program.
