Oral Cancer Detection In Winchester, VA
Despite the mouth being such a small area, oral cancer accounts for around 2% of all cancer in the US. Early diagnosis is key as patients with lesions that are detected early (localized disease) have a survival rate of 83% compared to 32% for those with a late diagnosis (disease has spread).
We Perform an Oral Cancer Screening at Every Dental Check-up.
During the exam, we will look at the areas around the lips, tongue and throat. We offer this complimentary service at your checkup appointment as a courtesy.
It is Important to Look for Signs and Symptoms of Oral Cancer:
- Lumps
- Red and white lesions in the mouth
- Swelling
- Sores that won’t heal
- Difficulty swallowing
- Numbness
- Loose teeth
If you encounter any of these symptoms please contact our office as soon as possible to set up an exam.
