At our clinic, we are committed to not only taking care of your smile but also enhancing your overall wellbeing. Oral cancer screenings are a crucial part of our preventive health services, aimed at detecting early signs of cancer even before symptoms appear.
Oral cancer can affect any part of the mouth including the lips, tongue, cheeks and throat. Early detection significantly improves the chances of successful treatment, which is why we include screenings as a standard part of your dental checkups.
During an oral cancer screening, our skilled dental professionals perform a thorough examination of all parts of your mouth. This includes a visual inspection of your lips, cheeks, tongue and the roof and floor of your mouth. We also palpate the neck and jaw areas to check for any unusual lumps or changes.
Our team uses the latest techniques to ensure that the screening is not only effective but also comfortable. We understand that the idea of cancer screening can be daunting, which is why we take the time to explain each step of the process. We encourage you to share any concerns or questions you might have about the screening or your oral health in general.
By choosing our clinic for your dental care, you are taking a proactive step towards maintaining not just your oral health, but your overall health. Regular visits allow us to monitor your oral health and catch potential issues early, including signs of oral cancer.
