How often to dental professionals overlook oral cancer?


Ive seen 2 dentists and a oral surgon,. had xrays and an ultrasound.. how much more throughal can you be?

nooo they said nothing is wrong, I was just wondering if anyone knows after looking into it, how often it is overlooked?

every time u go to the dentist..... good luck with that btw hope they find u a cure soon

I don't understand what you are talking about. Do you have oral cancer? Or do you just think you might? Or you just found out and wonder why it wasn't caught before?

If you are really concerned, I would go to a gp. When I had leukemia but before I was diagnosed.. I got a gum infection. I went to the dentist because I didnt know anything was wrong. They told me I had gingivitues sent me home with anti biotics and told me to get a deep cleaning. Had I actually gotten the deep cleaning, it would have killed me.
