Southport Dental Indianapolis | Screening for Oral Cancer

A regular oral cancer screening by your dentist, every six months, is the best way to catch cancer at its earliest stages. An oral cancer screening takes just minutes and can be performed during regular dental exams and cleanings. During your routine dental cleanings and exams at our office, Dr. Mills and his team will perform an oral cancer screening to check for the signs of oral cancer.

The video below demonstrates a screening of oral cancer during a dental checkup:

Oral cancer screenings are important for detecting and treating mouth cancer early! Oral, head and neck cancer represents a variety of cancers that can be found in the mouth, including the tongue, throat, lips, larynx and salivary glands, as well as the sinuses, nasal cavity and thyroid. Early detection is key to surviving this type of cancer.

If you would like to schedule an exam with an oral cancer screening give our team a call at 317-494-7366 to schedule an appointment. We are dedicated to providing you and your family the highest quality dental care!

What our patients are saying about us.

I was scared to death coming in. When he told me he was done I thought he was joking. Four wisdom teeth out in moments. He was fantastic. He talked me through everything, or atleast everything he thought I should know. The nurse was also very sweet always asking me if I was okay. This went from what I thought was going to be the worst to absolutely the best dental visit (all things considered). I will tell anyone that will listen how great these guys are. Thank you.
