When it comes to talking with you about oral cancer, our goal is to have you feeling as informed as possible. We know that covering the statistics and details is not necessarily a topic you want to spend time focusing on because it’s quite a serious disease (and more common than most patients realize). However, it’s these very details that will help you remain motivated to practice preventive care. You can stop the problem before it escalates and becomes too difficult to treat. Learn more!
It Probably Won’t Hurt
If you are relying on your senses to let you know when something is wrong with your smile, we strongly advise you against using this as your only method of protecting your oral health. Just like it’s possible to experience decay or an infection without experiencing any pain or obvious signs, the same is true for oral cancer. As a result, the best thing you can do is come in for your twice-annual checkups, so we can look for evidence of changes you cannot detect on your own.
It Can Be Fatal
It’s important to recognize that oral cancer can be fatal. It takes the lives of thousands of individuals every single year. Keep in mind, however, that we don’t want you to feel scared or worried. Rather, we want you to feel empowered and motivated! Why? Well, because with dedicated attention to your dental care, you can avoid the problem from progressing.
It’s Preventable
About preventing oral cancer from becoming advanced: What you need to do is simple. You need to schedule time to see us two times a year for your cleaning and your checkup. We will screen you for oral cancer during each checkup, so if you ever require treatment, you will receive it very early on. It’s that easy.
