Oral Cancer Screenings

Home » Dental Library » General Dentistry » Oral Cancer Screenings

Pensacola, FL Endodontist

Your dental office emphasizes the importance of providing routine oral cancer screenings. Your dentist may be certified to detect and properly diagnose oral cancer. By detecting any abnormalities in your oral health early, it will help you get the treatment you need to either regress or eliminate the risk of developing a more serious oral health condition.

Oral cancer, also known as mouth cancer can be found on the lips, tongue, gums or lining of the mouth or throat. Studies show it is responsible for the death of one adult American every hour. Early detection of oral cancer is crucial to its treatment success. For this reason, your dentist recommends an annual oral cancer screening. There are a number of oral cancer symptoms that start to appear early on, including:

• White or red patches in your mouth
• A mouth sore that won’t heal within two weeks
• Unexplained bleeding in your mouth
• A soreness of feeling that something is caught in the back of the throat
• Problem or pain with swallowing, speaking or moving the jaw or tongue
• Lumps or swellings in or around your mouth
• Ear pain
• Dramatic weight loss

If you show any symptoms that last for more than a week and show no signs of regressing, schedule an appointment with your dentist immediately.

Oral cancer can happen to anyone, although research suggests that it is slightly more common in men. Those who smoke or use tobacco products are six times more likely than nonsmokers to develop oral cancer. Oral cancer is also more likely to occur in those with genetic predisposition, prolonged sun exposure, or in those who drink alcohol excessively. However, it is important to note that anyone can get oral cancer.

Treatment success depends on the size, type and stage of the cancer. In most cases, small cancerous tumors are removed along with a small ring of healthy tissue that surrounded it and radiation or chemotherapy is then delivered to kill off any remaining cancerous cells.

Experience 5-Star Care

Our goal is to provide our patients with the highest level of dental care available today. Read what our patients are saying about their 5-star experience with us! We can’t wait to do the same for you!

Sharon B.
I had a root canal at Elite Endodontics. The procedure was completed within an hour with very little discomfort. Dr. Todd explained each step of the process carefully and gave clear instructions at the end. The assistant, Alesha, was so very kind and caring. She called the next day to check on me, which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Elite Endodontics to anyone needing a procedure that this office offers.

I'd give way more stars if I could! I've seen a lot of doctors for myself and my son, but Dr Todd is hands down the best! His bedside manner can't be beat! My 14 year old had to get a root canal (which is a terrifying thing for a mom), but it was flawless! my son even said he thinks he dozed off a couple of times. Dr Todd explained everything ahead of time and let my son know as he was about to do something. what could have been a scary procedure was super easy. Go to Dr. Todd if you need an Endodontist! I'm super super impressed and 100% thankful we came to him to get this procedure done! Thank you to Dr Todd and his entire staff! Top Notch!!
John B.

Michael C
This is the BEST dental experience I have had in my 58 years on this planet= the facility is very inviting, Gina and Doctor Beam are extremely competent & compassionate, and my root canal went so well that I fell asleep during the procedure… all readers of this review owes it to themselves to check out this 6 star business!!!
Greg W.
Dr B has mastered his craft and does excellent work. He takes the time to answer any questions you have and ensures you are comfortable. If you need an endodontist then look no further. Top notch service with modern equipment and friendly staff.
Brooke D.
Couldn't be happier with our experience! Doctor Todd and his amazing assistant, Nicole, went above and beyond with my daughter, making her feel completely at ease. The front office staff struck the perfect balance of friendliness and professionalism, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Top notch.
Susannah G.
Everyone is super friendly, helpful, and always checking to make sure you’re comfortable and experiencing no pain. Great office!
Jeanette T.
Dr Todd and Aleya took such great care of my issue I was having with my tooth. I had a positive experience from front desk to treatment (which was painless outside of numbing). I have full confidence in this dentistry, am fully satisfied with my results and will highly recommend them to my friends and family.
CLIFF A.
THANK YOU, DR. TODD!
I had no idea a root canal could be so painless. I've never had a more pleasant dental appointment in my life!
Sophia earned my sincere appreciation for getting me an appointment so quickly. And, Gina deserves a big ole "Thank You!" too.
Elite Enodontics is the absolute best place I've ever been to for dental work.
Julie G.
The professionalism, kindness, empathy, urgency, and overall care that was given to me was like stepping back into time when businesses cared about you and wanted to help you without hesitation. Due to the level of pain I was having, I was not going to be able to function much longer without some relief. I filled out the new patio request the night before and referenced “urgent” and they called me at 7:30 the next morning and were able to take me in at 1030. Dr. Todd was able to numb the area to get the pain to subside and then requested I get a little something in my stomach since I hadn’t eaten since the day before and was low on sleep from the pain. They cleared a slot for me to come back at 2:30 and did the root canal and I was out about an hour later. Though I hope never to need that level of dental care again, I do know that if I do, I will be going to Dr. Todd and his staff at Elite.
