Author’s response

Thank you, Dr. Bench, for pointing out the full array of diagnostic armamentarium for oral cancer, including the brush biopsy. My article, however, was never intended to be a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of oral cancer. This has been covered much more extensively in a host of previous scientific articles.

The intent here is to raise dentists’ consciousness of the impending risks of ignoring oral cancer, and its posttreatment considerations.

Having said that, I still believe that Dr. Bench’s comments are well-founded to aid our colleagues in recognizing the full extent of diagnostic procedures available today.
