Susan --

An oral surgeon's initial biopsy of my husband's leukoplakia, also found by his dentist, had a similar finding -- moderate dysplasia, but warning of a "skip effect" that could be hiding cancer cells. He did not immediately go to a CCC, since no cancer had been identified. When an ENT did a complete excisional biopsy a month later, the report showed SCC in situ and a bit superficially invasive.

Since then he has been followed by a doctor at Johns Hopkins CCC -- so far so good, knock on wood. When he made his first appointment at Hopkins six months ago he forwarded the original biopsy slides and all the surgical reports. With this disease it's important to be seen at a center where the doctors deal with this every day.

The main part of this site has a "Dental Lifesavers" page where dentists who identify this disease at its earliest, most curable stages are honored. Sounds like yours would qualify!

All the best,
Leslie
