![]() ![]() My regular dental appointment, my dentist couldn't see it and did he look! - he said it's not even worthy of a note on my file. He wants to see me in two months - that kind of freaked me out - I called my dentist immediately - I've never worn my mouthguard - started wearing it - the patch was gone completely in 3 weeks never to return. My annual visit to the ent - he saw a white patch in my mouth that wasn't there before - it's right where the bite line is between my teeth on the opposite side. Maybe because it's an area we can see where the trouble started, we're continually drawn to look and the surface of the mouth does change daily. I'm really scared to die though and I don't want to wait for it to get worse if it is cancer what should I do?Įdit: I should also add that cancer on the hard palate (where my white patch is) is uncommon.Ashley - I'm another example of someone who has been a little too vigilant - in fact I think I planted the idea of the "maglite in the high magnification mirror" everynight for quite awhile. It doesn't help that my dentist is kind of an asshole who doesn't care to give his patients the time of day (he has 5 1 star reviews on the rate my doctor website and no other reviews). But if I go to the office I feel like they won't take me seriously because my mom made an emergency appointment before for no good reason (yes I know I should be making my own appointments at my age but I'm on her insurance and I don't want to end up doing something that costs her a lot of money so I let her handle this stuff). It is rare for people my age to get oral cancer but I am a former smoker and I have drake a little bit so my chances are not 0% and I'm really worried. ![]() The problem is like a month ago my mom made me an emergency dentists appointment when all I needed was a regular appointment and cleaning so now I'm scared that they think I am a hypochondriac coming in a month later saying I think I might have oral cancer. I'm 22 years old and I've had this sore white patch on the roof of my mouth for about 2 weeks now, and they say to get anything like that that doesn't heal in 2 weeks to see a doctor/dentist.
