At Sweet City Smiles, located in Sugar Hill, Georgia, we prioritize comprehensive preventive care, including professional oral cancer screenings as part of your routine dental visits. Dr. Jonathan Chang and our experienced team understand the importance of early detection in maintaining your overall health and well-being through thorough oral examinations.
The Life-Saving Benefits of Regular Oral Cancer Screenings
Early detection through oral cancer screenings significantly improves treatment outcomes and survival rates. During your screening, we examine all areas of your mouth, throat, and neck for any unusual changes, lumps, or lesions that may require further evaluation. Regular screenings can detect precancerous conditions before they develop into more serious problems. Our comprehensive approach ensures that we catch potential issues early when they are most treatable. Prevention-centered care, like oral cancer screenings, demonstrates our commitment to your long-term health and peace of mind.
What to Expect During Your Oral Cancer Screening:
Our oral cancer screening process is thorough yet comfortable, typically taking just a few minutes during your regular dental appointment. Dr. Jonathan Chang will carefully examine your lips, tongue, gums, throat, and neck, feeling for any abnormal lumps or tissue changes. We use advanced diagnostic techniques to identify areas of concern that may not be visible to the naked eye. The screening is completely painless and involves visual inspection and gentle palpation of oral tissues. We take time to explain our findings and educate you about maintaining optimal oral health between visits.
