Teaching self-examination of the head and neck: another aspect of preventive dentistry



RT Glass, M Abla, and J Wheatley

A technique for self-examination of the oral cavity and head and neck has been presented. The technique is simple in its design and yet thorough in its scope. The need for such an examination is established on the incidence of malignancies in this area and the importance of early detection, diagnosis, and treatment. The role of dental auxiliaries and the role of risk factors are discussed.
