Oral Cancer Screening in Scottsdale
Scottsdale, AZ: We have incorporated latest technology in early detection of Oral Cancer.
When found early, oral cancer patients have an 80 to 90 % survival rate. Unfortunately 40% of those diagnosed with oral cancer will die within five years because the majority of these cases will be discovered as a late stage malignancy.
Oral cancer is particularly dangerous, because the patient may not notice it in its early stages. It can frequently prosper without producing pain or symptoms. As a result, Oral Cancer often goes undetected until it has already metastasized to another location.
Most oral cancer screenings are done by a Dentist or Hygienist.
