A translational program focused on integrating prevention, screening, early diagnosis and treatment of oral cancer that is aimed at translating research findings into practical care at a population level with minimum delay. The program trains dentists and dental assistants on oral screening as well as assessment; using a BC OCPP-developed risk model to determine probability of progression or regression.
