Description:

After a brief head and neck exam review, this course will cover common entities in oral pathology. Similar entities will be presented side by side, with differences shown to emphasize how to tell them apart. Discussion will include how to recognize precancerous lesions, malignancies and immune-mediated diseases, as well as when to treat, how to treat, and when to refer.

Objectives:

  • Perform a head and neck/oral cancer screening exam with confidence. 
  • Differentiate benign lesions from precancerous and malignant lesions.
