Oral cancer affects millions of Americans every year, yet it’s often one of the most undetected types of this disease. Now you know why it’s more important than ever to regularly see your general dentist in Greenwood Village for your bi-annual checkups. Every time you visit us, we conduct a visual/manual inspection for oral cancer. We’re on the lookout for:
- Redness or swelling
- Bleeding gums
- White patches or lesions
- Recurring issues or bumps that won’t go away
Dr. Macri is highly trained and skilled at knowing what to look for when it comes to detecting oral cancer. You want a Denver dentist like him on your side because oral cancer has a tricky way of showing up in your soft tissue not necessarily looking like cancer. If you’re in need of a checkup, oral cancer screening, and a cleaning, Macri Dental has you covered. Call us or message us today to get scheduled!
