Oral Cancer Screening in Edmonton
Early detection is the single most important factor in successful treatment. We screen at every visit.
What Does Oral Cancer Screening Involve?
Oral cancer screening is a quick, painless, and non-invasive examination performed as a standard part of every routine dental visit at Schonsee Dental in Edmonton. Early detection dramatically improves treatment outcomes and survival rates for oral cancers.
During an oral cancer screening at our Edmonton clinic, our dentist carefully examines all the soft tissues in your mouth, including your lips, tongue, palate, cheeks, and the floor of your mouth. We also gently palpate your jaw and neck to check for any unusual lumps or swelling.
