Oral cancer screening,
at every comprehensive exam.
Early detection is the single largest factor in oral cancer survival. Sarasota Dental Arts screens every patient at every comprehensive exam, non-invasively, in a few minutes.
Oral cancer screening is a visual and tactile examination of the lips, tongue, cheeks, palate, throat, and surrounding tissues for early signs of cancer or pre-cancerous lesions. The screening takes only a few minutes, is non-invasive, and is included with every comprehensive exam at Sarasota Dental Arts.
