Oral Cancer Prevention

According to The Oral Cancer Foundation, someone dies from oral cancer every hour of every day in the United States alone. This cancer, found in the mouth, lips or throat, is often highly curable if diagnosed and treated early. Unfortunately, in its early stages, oral cancer can go unnoticed.

Those at high risk for oral cancer include tobacco users, African-American men and heavy drinkers, but anyone can develop oral cancer. According to the Oral Cancer Consortium, 25 percent of people diagnosed with oral cancer have no risk factors. Studies have also determined there may be a link between HPV (human papilloma virus) and oral cancer.

oral_cancer Using an FDA approved new device called the VELscope we can detect symptoms of possible oral cancer invisible to the naked eye. The VELscope is non-invasive and uses a bright blue light to emphasize any changes in the mouth that a dentist or hygienist could not normally see.

The Oral Cancer Foundation estimates that 34,000 Americans will be diagnosed with oral cancer this year alone, with only 50 percent still being alive in 5 years. The problem is much larger worldwide. Even with these statistics, the experts agree that early diagnosis pushes the five-year survival rate to an astonishing 80 percent.

Periodontal Disease

If left untreated, this non-painful gum infection can cause bone loss around the teeth causing them to become loose. Chronic bad breathe, bleeding, red and puffy gums are early sign of gum infection. Our laser assisted treatment can painlessly and often non-surgically, eliminate this disease from your mouth and help prevent any future loss of teeth. And, in the event the disease is so advanced that surgery is necessary, laser therapy eliminates most post-operative discomfort and significantly reduces the healing time. Periodontal disease has also been linked as a contributing factor to heart disease. Call us today for a complimentary exam and screening to make sure this silent disease is not affecting your over-all health and the health and strength of your teeth.

Cerec Crowns and Restoration

We are pleased to offer our patients Cerec® restorative services. A superior method of creating precisely designed, color matched and highly durable ceramic restorations. From simple fillings and onlays to full crowns, in a single appointment, eliminating the need for temporaries and a return visit.

Composite fillings

A more natural look -- Composite fillings are modern, tooth-colored fillings comprised of resin mixed with microscopic porcelain particles. Because they are tooth-colored—unlike the silver or amalgam fillings of the past—it is difficult to distinguish them from natural teeth, enabling us to give you a bright smile. Composites are used on the front teeth where a natural appearance is important. They can be used on the back teeth as well. They are an excellent replacement for the old mercury filling material, and they help us save more of your strong, healthy tooth structure.
