Prioritize Your Health with Routine Oral Cancer Screenings

Oral cancer doesn’t always come with obvious warning signs—which is why early detection is critical. At Family Dentistry of Crystal Lake, we include screenings during your regular dental visits to ensure your total oral health is protected.

What to Expect During a Screening

Our experienced dental professionals carefully examine the soft tissues of your mouth—including your lips, cheeks, tongue, and throat—for any signs of abnormal growths, discoloration, or persistent sores. This painless, non-invasive evaluation can reveal early warning signs that might otherwise go unnoticed.

The Importance of Early Detection

Oral cancer affects thousands of Americans each year, and unfortunately, many cases are diagnosed too late. Men are statistically more at risk, but this condition can affect people of all ages. According to the American Cancer Society, over 54,000 new cases are reported annually.

At our office, we follow the highest standards for early detection, because when caught in the initial stages, oral cancer is far more treatable. Be proactive—ask for your oral cancer screening during your next checkup and gain peace of mind along with your clean smile.
