Microlux Oral Cancer Screener
Used in conjunction with a traditional visual examination, the battery-powered Microlux DL from AdDent helps dentists locate and identify abnormal lesions found on the soft tissues of the mouth. The patient rinses with a one percent acetic acid for 30 seconds, which is followed with an oral exam using the Microlux DL. A lighted mirror is also available to see in those difficult to reach areas. The tip is autoclaveable, and there are disposable sleeves available.
