Checking For Skin Cancer on the Head and Neck

There are many reasons to have a dental check-up every 6 months. The main reason is to clean the tartar off your teeth and check your gums, but many of you may not know that we also check for oral cancer and skin cancer. This year we have seen a spike in skin cancer. During a check-up we may see a skin lesion that could be skin cancer. At that time we will tell you and recommend the proper medical professional that you should see to get checked further. If you have not had a check-up recently call us today and make an appointment.
