I am a Registered Dental Hygienist and graduated with distinction from University of Alberta. I am currently taking an advanced clinical module in oral pathology, shadowing biopsy clinics with oral pathologists and meeting patients who were diagnosed late stage with oral cancer. I am editing to enhance learning surrounding oral cancer screening, particularly cancers involving the lips, tongue and oropharynx and current screening methods which are the standard of practice for dental hygienists in Canada.
