Comprehensive Care Approach

At White Dental Hospital, we take a multidisciplinary approach to oral oncology care, involving a team of specialists from different disciplines to provide comprehensive evaluation, treatment, and support for patients with oral cancer. Our comprehensive care approach includes:

1. Early Detection and Diagnosis: Early detection of oral cancer is crucial for successful treatment outcomes. Our oral oncologists utilize advanced imaging techniques, such as CT scans, MRI scans, and PET scans, along with thorough clinical examinations and biopsies, to diagnose oral cancer accurately.

2. Treatment Planning: Once a diagnosis is confirmed, our multidisciplinary team collaborates to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to the individual needs and preferences of each patient. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or a combination of these modalities.

3. Surgical Intervention: Surgery is often the primary treatment for oral cancer, aiming to remove the tumor and any affected surrounding tissues while preserving as much healthy tissue and function as possible. Our experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons perform precise surgical procedures, including tumor resection, neck dissection, and reconstructive surgery, to optimize treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients.

4. Radiation Therapy: Radiation therapy uses high-energy beams to target and destroy cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Our radiation oncologists utilize advanced radiation techniques, such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), to deliver precise and effective treatment while reducing side effects.

5. Chemotherapy and Targeted Therapy: Chemotherapy and targeted therapy may be used in conjunction with surgery and radiation therapy to treat advanced or recurrent oral cancers. These systemic treatments target cancer cells throughout the body and may help shrink tumors, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall survival rates.

6. Supportive Care Services: In addition to cancer treatments, our oral oncology team provides comprehensive supportive care services to help patients manage side effects, maintain nutrition and hydration, address pain and discomfort, and cope with the emotional and psychosocial aspects of cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Oral oncology, also known as oral cancer care or head and neck oncology, focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of cancers affecting the oral cavity, throat, and related structures. At White Dental Hospital, our multidisciplinary team of oral oncologists, surgeons, oncology nurses, and support staff provides compassionate and comprehensive care to patients with oral cancer, offering state-of-the-art treatments, personalized support, and guidance throughout their cancer journey.
