The importance of oral cancer screenings at Lifetime Smiles
In our continuing efforts to provide the most advanced technology and highest quality care available to our patients, Escondido dentist Dr. Rabee McDonald screens our patients for oral cancer. The fact is, every hour of every day in the United States, someone dies of oral cancer, which happens to be the sixth-most common form of the disease. In fact, 27 percent of oral cancer victims do not use tobacco or alcohol - and have no other lifestyle risk factors.
Early detection of pre-cancerous tissue can minimize or eliminate the potentially disfiguring effects of oral cancer and possibly save your life. In less than five minutes, we will conduct a thorough oral cancer screening exam, using the FDA-approved ViziLite Plus technology to help detect oral cancer and pre-malignant abnormalities.
Ask Drs. McDonald or Prais about a screening at your next appointment and enjoy the rest of your week!
