The article focuses on screening of oral cancer. It is said that toluidine blue has been used as a vital stain to distinguish oral cancers while direct fluorescence visualization is being used in management of oral dysplasia and oral cancer. A step-by-step approach from the British Columbia Oral Cancer Prevention Program (BC OCPP) in evaluating whether a mucosal lesion is premalignant or potentially malignant is cited.
