Your Health and Peace of Mind with Oral Cancer Screenings

Why is Oral Cancer Screening So Important?

Even with your daily brushing and flossing routine, oral cancer may go unnoticed early on where symptoms tend to be less noticeable, especially if they’re in hard-to-see places.

Here are some key reasons why oral cancer screenings are a vital part of your dental visit:

• Early Detection Saves Lives: During your routine dental check-up, we can check for any suspicious areas and catch them early on. This means earlier, more effective treatment and a dramatically improved outcome.
• Non-Invasive and Quick: The screening process is quick, comfortable, and doesn’t involve any invasive procedures. In fact, it’s so naturally woven into our normal check-ups, it’d be over before you know it!
• Peace of Mind: Knowing that you’ve been screened for oral cancer can provide significant reassurance about your health, and with routine checkups and cleanings, you’ll feel confident year-round.
• Comprehensive Health Approach: Oral health is connected to your overall well-being. By including oral cancer screenings, we demonstrate our commitment to your complete health.

Our dentists are trained to recognize even the slightest irregularities that might indicate oral cancer. If we see anything suspicious or concerning, we’ll discuss the next steps with you and may refer you to a specialist for further diagnosis and treatment.
