Over 30,000 new cases of oral cancer will be detected in the US alone each year. Oral cancer is the only cancer that is on the rise, but the most curable if caught early. The thing about oral cancer is that it may start off so harmless looking; a small bump or lump, a red or white spot in your mouth that you may not have even noticed.

Your hygienist does an oral cancer exam at every professional dental cleaning appointment. The Dr. also checks annually when he examines the soft tissues of your mouth. Early detection is the key!

Recently, a new technology has become available to us called Trimira Identafi 3000 ultra.  The light source helps us better see the oral lesions at the earliest possible stages.
