Preventative Dentistry in Stuart, FL
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screening is a thorough check-up of your mouth performed by a dentist to look for cancerous and precancerous signs in your mouth. The main aim behind this screening is to detect the disease at an early stage so that proper measures can be taken to cure or prevent it . The test might not reveal the results instantly, and therefore, the doctor might recommend the patient return in two weeks. In the meantime, they will scrape off the cells from the affected area where they see signs of oral cancer and send it for biopsy. Get in touch with us to schedule an oral cancer dental screening.
