As part of our commitment to preventive care for our patients at Desford Dental Care we include mouth cancer screenings in all our routine dental examinations.
As with all cancers, it is of paramount importance that we detect mouth cancer as early as possible. To help screen for mouth cancer symptoms, we will perform an extra mouth cancer examination during your routine check-up with us here at Desford Dental Care. It is a simple treatment that involves examining the mouth for sores, swellings, any red or white patches or any other abnormalities.
What happens after?
If we find anything that causes us concern, we will either ask you back for a follow-up appointment or recommend you to a specialist.
