Did you know that oral cancer is the sixth deadliest form of cancer – and the most curable if caught in the early stages? Anyone can get oral cancer – even you. Oral cancer can affect the lip, tongue, mouth and throat. It is often undetectable during a normal dental examination until it reaches an advanced stage.
Coast Dental is among a handful of large group practices across the country to make a commitment to screen patients for oral cancer using advanced technology. We offer patients Identafi 3000® ultra, a quick, painless and noninvasive advanced oral cancer screening exam. Identafi 3000 ultra improves your dentist’s ability to identify, evaluate and monitor any abnormal areas not visible in a conventional exam. There is a charge for this screening; however, some insurance companies include this procedure in their coverage.
