Oral cancer screenings are an important part of preventive care that can help detect signs and symptoms of oral cancer early. At Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, our team of experienced dentists and hygienists provide comprehensive oral cancer screenings as a part of every patient’s routine checkup.
During the screening, your dentist will visually inspect your mouth for any signs of lesions, growths, or other abnormalities. They may also use a special light to help them identify any irregularities. Your dentist will also feel your neck for any lumps and examine the inside of your cheeks, lips, and tongue for suspicious areas. If they find anything that requires further testing, they will refer you to an oral surgeon for additional tests.
Oral cancer screenings are a quick and painless way to detect any changes in your mouth that could indicate oral cancer. With regular checkups, you can be sure to keep your mouth healthy and catch any problems early.
