MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, OHIO (PRWEB)

A trusted family dentist that provides everything from routine cleanings and root canals to Invisalign, dental implants, laser dentistry, veneers and more, Exceptional Smiles at Landerbrook delivers the very best in comprehensive dental care. The clinic is proud to announce they will be offering completely free oral cancer screenings throughout the month of April, as April is “Oral Cancer Awareness month” across the country. Although oral cancer only accounts for approximately 3% of all cancer cases, there are still estimated to be over 45,000 Americans diagnosed this year. Because oral cancer is often detected at a late stage, only 60% of newly diagnosed people live longer than 5 years. Most dentists are able to do a quick oral examination of the tissues in the mouth to look for any noticeable cancerous growth or damage. Like all cancers, early detection is crucial for a successful recovery, and unfortunately, a simple visual check can often miss developing issues. That is why trained staff at Exceptional Smiles at Landerbrook take advantage of the VELscope Oral Assessment System, a state-of-the-art tool utilizing harmless blue light to detect distinct patterns of healthy and unhealthy tissues. This screening is both quick and painless and can be easily fit into routine dental exams and cleanings. In their commitment to the community, Exceptional Smiles at Landerbrook will also be offering free oral cancer screenings to non-current or future patients – by appointment.
