Oral Cancer Screening

We perform oral cancer screenings whenever you come in for a checkup. Our team has a proven record of detecting oral issues that need further examination. With over 10 years serving the Merced, Winton, Atwater, Cressey, and other nearby communities, we know when something isn’t quite right. Your health is always our top priority and our staff is committed to finding and treating problems, no matter how mild or severe, as soon as we can. 

What is involved in an oral cancer screening?

Our screenings are fast, comprehensive, and pain-free. This quick and simple test can potentially save your life. We examine the areas listed below:

• Back of your throat
• Tongue
• Floor of your mouth
• Roof of your mouth
• Face
• Jaw
• Neck
• Lips

In the case we find something irregular, we may refer you to a different office for additional testing and screenings to collect all the information and answers we can. We may also reassess the troubled area down the line to see if anything has changed.  

When should I get a screening for oral cancer?

It is crucial to get routine oral cancer screenings. The more often you come in, the more we can check for any irregularities and stop any diseases before they manifest. In some cases, our team may require you to have a more detailed and painless screening to gain a better understanding of the issue.
