Oral Cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the nation, accounting for 40,000 newly diagnosed cancers in the US each year. It is a devastating, even deadly, cancer that can go unnoticed until it has progressed to later stages. 25% of all oral cancer victims are non-smokers, non-drinkers and have no other lifestyle risk factors. As with any cancer, early detection and diagnosis are key. It is important for patients to see an oral healthcare professional regularly, particularly if they are in the high-risk groups: those who use tobacco, abuse alcohol, or have been exposed to HPV.
Our health care professionals at Modern Dentistry perform free oral cancer screenings and examinations during your routine checkups. Oral cancer often starts as a tiny, unnoticed white or red spot or sore in the mouth. It can affect any area of the oral cavity, including the lips, gum tissue, cheek lining, tongue and the hard or soft palate. Regular dental checkups, including an examination of the entire mouth, can detect cancerous and pre-cancerous conditions.
We also offer and additional oral cancer screening tool: ViziLite® Plus with TBlue®, the leading oral cancer screening system that has been developed by oral health care professionals to identify, evaluate, monitor and mark abnormal oral lesions suspicious for pathology including precancerous cells and cancer that may be difficult to see during a regular visual exam.

I've been a patient for at least 4years. I hate the thought of going to the dentist. I was referred by Modern Dentistry wonderful Periodontist, I would need a deep cleaning. I was extremely terrified and notice. I am extremely sensitive … More and the thought of hearing a drill makes me cringe! I needed two appts (each section of my mouth needed to be done in two parts). The hygentist was THEE BEST!!! He informed me before hand the drill noise I will experience, but he will be gentle as possible and anesthesia will be need (omg). Both appts was handle with care and really smooth. No pain just pressure. I had my earphones on during both appts just to block out the drilling noise. There hygentisist is the BEST!!! HE DESERVES 20 STARS!!!! DON'T HESITATE MAKE YOUR APPT!!. Thank you Modern Dentistry! There staff is very pleasant and the office is extremely cleaned and well sanitized.
