A healthy smile is a pleasure to look at. It can also be an important indicator of overall health. Recent studies have shown an association between gum disease and increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes. Prevention is the best defense against tooth and gum disease and associated problems. Oral Cancer screening are completed at each preventative care visit. Brushing twice a day, routine flossing, regular dental exams, oral cancer screenings and professional cleanings are the best steps toward prevention. We invite you to schedule an appointment for a comprehensive examination and oral cancer screening. Even if you think your mouth is in perfect health, we suggest you come in for regular exams. Maintenance and prevention are the best ways to keep your attractive smile healthy!
A painless and fast test done right in our office, assists in early detection of oral cancer and other abnormalities. The test simply involves rinsing with a special cleansing solution and viewing all oral tissues with a specialized light source. Dr. Klein especially recommends that you schedule an appointment for this test if you are over the age of 30, or are any age and use tobacco.
