Dental Cancer Screening & Oral Cancer Testing by Amherstburg Dental Office
An oral Cancer Screening is essential to help detect cancer when it is in the early stages. There are various areas where oral cancer can grow such as: the lips, gums, roof of the mouth, under the tongue and inside the throat. Oral cancer can develop in individuals at any age, and known factors like smoking, heavy alcohol use and chewing tobacco can increase an individual’s chance of developing an oral cancer. Our team will ensure that you feel well informed about the risks of oral cancer.
When you visit our office for your normal oral hygiene cleaning and dental check up, we will perform an oral cancer exam at no extra charge. If we suspect anything during the examination, we will provide you with information about our suspicions and complete further testing in a timely fashion.
