Oral Cancer Screenings in Gretna, LA

Oral cancer is, unfortunately, the 4th most common cancer in the United States. In the past this cancer primarily affected people over the age of 60, but within the past 10 years, it has become more commonly affecting young adults as young as 20.

We offer oral cancer screening to all of our patients to help identify possible and suspicious problems before they become life-threatening and we follow the American Dental Association recommendation of doing the oral cancer screening once per year. The screening takes under 10 minutes and is painless and is typically done along with a routine cleaning.
