We Wouldn’t Pull Your Leg About Tooth Loss
June 18, 2024As your dental office, it is our responsibility to be more than just your tooth doctor — we also want to contribute to your total body health.
That’s why we do a full oral cancer screening at every checkup. This quick and easy exam can catch oral cancer before it starts! Early detection, as with any cancer, is crucial in a positive outcome.
Some warning signs to look for:
- Bumps/sores in the mouth that bleed easily and don’t disappear on their own within 14 days
- Pain or difficulty chewing, swallowing or speaking
- Numbness in mouth/facial area
So don’t neglect your six-month checkup. Not only will we clean your teeth we’ll also make sure you’re cavity-free. We are committed to your overall health, because your health is our top priority.
