Dentist in Littleton is working hard to save their patients the trouble of oral cancer by providing screenings for early detection at Dry Creek Dental.

Littleton, United States - August 14, 2019 /PressCable/ —

Littleton, CO – According to the American Cancer Society, about 53,000 people will be diagnosed with oropharyngeal cancer and an estimated 10,860 will die from it. Of the 53,000 people, only slightly more than half will be alive in 5 years. This number has not significantly improved in decades. Given these figures, it is important for individuals to have themselves screened for oral cancer.

Oral cancer will not only affect the way people smile but also their overall health. The mortality rate for these types of cancers is particularly high because they are routinely discovered late in its development. Get an oral cancer screening before it is too late. Littleton, Colorado residents can count on Dry Creek Dental to check them for oral cancer.

Oral Health is General Health

Dry Creek Dental believes that a healthy oral cavity can contribute to general health. Patients who are suffering from oral cancer may have the following symptoms:

Red or white spots/sores

A sore that often bleeds and won’t heal

Lumps, thick patches, or rough spots in the mouth or throat

Painful/tender/numb areas

Problems chewing food, swallowing, speaking, or moving your tongue

Dry Creek Dental will check the mouth for these symptoms and pre-cancer signs to ensure that any issues are detected early. Dentists will also look for general health issues as well.
