About OralAdvance™   About Oral Cancer   Oral Health   Oral Cancer Detection	Patient Information > About OralAdvance™ About OralAdvance™ OralAdvance™ is an innovative test designed to detect early-stage oral cancer. As with all cancers, finding and treating oral cancer early greatly improves outcomes. It's a good idea to ask your dentist, doctor or dental hygienist for an oral exam at least once a year. How OralAdvance™ works The dentist notices clinically suspicious lesions in the oral cavity. Using the soft cyto-brush included in the OralAdvance™ kit, the dentist brushes the area to collect a sample. The sample is sent to the Perceptronix Laboratory in Vancouver for processing and quantitative cytology assessment. A qualified Perceptronix pathologist documents findings in a quantitative cytology report. The completed report is sent to the patient's oral care provider. Laboratory turn-around time is approximately 2-3 working days from the time when laboratory receives the specimen. The oral care provider alerts the patients of anything that merits further investigation is found. Getting Tested If you would like to know if you are at risk of developing oral cancer talk to your dentist or Medical doctor. OralAdvance™ is not available for consumer purchase — it is only available to dentists and medical doctors.	OralAdvance™ is a quick, practically painless and convenient test.       > Order OralAdvance™     > OralAdvance™ -         Explanation and         Demonstration Video     > Patient Brochure     > Physician Brochure     > Requisition Form     > MSDS for         CytoRich™ Red
