Screening for Oral Cancer

Regular screenings for oral cancer are a crucial element of your dental care in San Jose. If your dentist is able to detect early warning signs of oral cancer, you have a much better chance of successful cancer treatment. You should visit your dental office every six months for professional teeth cleaning, teeth whitening, and preventative dental care, including oral cancer screenings.
