The oral cavity and oropharynx play an important role in speech, swallowing, respiration, and other vital physiologic functions. Any visit to a medical professional that includes a physical examination often includes the classic instruction to open the mouth and say “ah.” Traditionally, a handheld flashlight or head mirror and/or light may provide sufficient illumination for adequate examination of these areas. However, with optical endoscopes, we may be able to visualize these areas with greater detail and educate our patients with visual images.
