Join oral cancer coach Susan Cotten, BS, RHD, OMT, developer of The Cotten Method™ of Screening, for this intensive program designed to elevate and calibrate dentistry’s oral cancer screening.
This course will unpack the components of a comprehensive visual and tactile, extraoral, and intraoral evaluation/oral cancer screening, and explore the often overlooked signs and symptoms associated with oral and oropharyngeal cancer. Special attention will be given to the “why” behind each component, empowering the dental professional to perform screenings with more clarity.
Both dental hygienists and dentists play a critical role in early detection. This course is a call to action: to elevate the standard of care in screening, reduce the risk of liability for the dental professional, and increase early detection through calibrated, consistent, and efficient screening protocols. A comprehensive screening isn’t optional, it’s critical. Let’s close the gap together!
