Importance of Oral Cancer Screening

Oral cancer screening is an examination performed by a dentist to look for signs of cancer or precancerous conditions in the mouth. The goal of oral cancer screening is to identify mouth cancer early when there is a greater chance for a cure. Dr. Eric M Meyer, DDS believes oral cancer screenings are a very important part of the visit for the patient. With advances in modern technology, he is now able to pinpoint the start of a potential problem much earlier in its evolution.


Cancer screening trials are meant to show whether early detection (finding cancer before it causes symptoms) decreases a person’s chance of dying from the disease. Although no studies have proved that oral cancer screening saves lives if you are a heavy smoker or heavy drinker you may want to ask whether an oral cancer screening is appropriate for you. Dr. Eric M Meyer, DDS is always welcoming new patients and would love to have you as part of the dental family.
