Athletic Mouth Guards

As a part of preventive dentistry, oral cancer screenings are also performed at our clinic to check for any signs of abnormal tissues. The purpose of oral cancer screening is to identify cancer at an early stage which gives the benefit of starting the treatment at the earliest. This makes the treatment less invasive and has a better success rate. Identified at an advanced stage, oral cancer can spread to other area which makes the treatment complex.
