Oral cancer is one of the most common cancers today and has one of the lowest survival rates, with thousands of new cases being reported each year. Fewer than half of all people diagnosed with oral cancer are ever cured. At our office, we do a thorough oral cancer screening at every recare visit.
If oral cancer is not treated in time, it could spread to other facial and neck tissues, leading to disfigurement and pain. Prevention and early diagnosis is the key to staving off oral cancer.
