Preventive measures are always better than treatments. It is best practice to have regular dental and oral cancer screenings to ensure that you do not have any problems with your oral health. At Feeding Hills Dental Care, we recommend that our patients have an oral cancer screening one to two times per year, and conduct screenings very quickly, typically during your normal
dental exam and
cleaning appointment.
An oral cancer screening is a simple, quick, and painless way to potentially save your life. If you have any concerns about your oral health, or if it's been more than six months since your last dental visit, we encourage you to schedule one. An oral cancer screening has benefits including:
The earlier oral cancer is caught, the easier it is to treat.
Oral cancer screenings are quick, simple, and painless.
They are not expensive, and most dental insurance plans cover them.
The actual screening process takes less than five minutes. Oral cancer screenings are commonly done with your regular checkup and cleaning every six months. The dentist will visually examine your teeth, gums, tongue, cheeks, and throat, looking for any signs of disease. We may also feel your mouth and neck for lumps of any kind.
No, oral cancer screenings are not painful. You may feel a slight pressure as your dentist feels around your mouth and neck for any lumps or swellings, but there should be no pain involved. If you have any concerns or questions about the process, don't hesitate to ask. The screening process is very light and noninvasive. We're here to make sure you're comfortable throughout your dental visit.
Don't take chances with your health. Make sure to
schedule an appointment for an oral cancer screening today. Feeding Hills Dental Care
offers screenings that can easily pair with your dental cleaning every six months. With over 30
years of experience, we strive to make the process quick and make our patients feel as comfortable as possible when you visit.
