GENERAL DENTISTRY
Early detection saves lives. At Empower Dental Pasadena, we include advanced oral cancer screenings as part of your routine dental care—because protecting your health and peace of mind is our priority. Using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, we can identify early signs of oral cancer, often before noticeable symptoms appear, giving you the best chance at successful treatment.
At Empower Dental, we don’t just protect your smile—we protect your overall health. An oral cancer screening takes only minutes, but the peace of mind it brings is priceless.
Oral cancer can develop in many areas of the mouth—including the lips, tongue, cheeks, roof, floor, and even the throat. Because it often starts without pain or obvious symptoms, many patients don’t realize something is wrong until it’s more advanced. That’s why routine screenings are so important: they allow us to detect concerns early, when treatment is most effective.
Some of the most common risk factors include:
When caught early, oral cancer is highly treatable. At Empower Dental Pasadena, we use advanced technology to screen for subtle changes, giving you peace of mind and the best possible protection for your long-term health.
