Are you in need of Atlanta oral cancer screening? Oral cancer is the sixth most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States and has a five year survival rate of only 50%. Annually, over 50,000 Americans are affected with some form of this disease. If detected early with comprehensive dental care, the prognosis can be very encouraging. However, many people do not have the cancer screening that could save them from the devastation of oral cancer.

Risk factors of oral cancer include age, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, sun exposure, sexually transmitted viruses and diet. Oral cancer screening is provided during each complete oral exam. However, by the time oral cancer is detectable by a lesion in the mouth, it has progressed a good deal. Recent advances in dental technology have produced supplemental oral cancer screening devices that make in-office screenings more accurate.

We are pleased to offer our patients oral cancer screening with VELscope technology for a minimal charge. The VELscope screening is painless. There is no swishing with a vinegar-tasting solution and no irritating pricks. The VELscope uses a filtered UV light that indicates areas that may be precancerous, cancerous or benign. Studies have shown the VELscope can accurately and painlessly reveal tiny precancerous areas before they are clinically visible. If a suspicious area is noted, the proper follow-up procedures will be recommended.

The Importance of Screening

Oral cancers have some of the best results with early treatment. The problem is, less than a quarter of the population gets an annual screening for cancer. The screening is painless and does not take a long time. If a questionable area is found, it can be addressed and treated.

Lumps or nodules in or on the soft tissues of the mouth, head or neck could be indicative of a problem. Detection and examination of these anomalies in their earliest stages can be lifesaving. We recommend oral cancer screening for the oral health of all our patients.

If you have never been screened for oral cancer or you have any areas in your mouth that are suspicions or questionable, contact Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry of Atlanta today. Schedule an appointment for oral cancer screening. Why take chances with your health? Make your appointment today. It could be the appointment that saves your life.

Dr. Zelby was recommended to me by both my dentist and periodontist. I could not agree more. the kindness, caring, and professionalism that I experienced at Aesthetic & Implant Dentistry of Atlanta is above and beyond. I highly recommend Dr. Zelby, his assistants, and the staff. I couldn't be happier with my new teeth and wish I had done this years ago! five stars to you guys

Catherine W.

Everything about my experience was enjoyable. I felt like the practice used all of the most advanced and best technology out there which gave me a wonderful feeling of confidence. They were very professional and straight forward and I have never had a better dentistry experience. I'd highly recommend checking them out if you're looking for a new dentist. They're friendly and efficient and they really do know what they're doing there.

Meghan D.

Dr Zelby has been my dentist now for almost 17 years. Not only is he a really nice person, his dentistry is completely top notch. If you need any restorations, I don't think that there is another place to even consider. You'll be amazed with his work!

Brian S.

Dr. Levine was great, and Dr. Zelby stopped by and answered some questions I had about sheering forces on enamel. They were both very friendly, and the hygenist (whose name I forget, unfortunately) gave one of the most thorough cleanings I've ever had. The office was clean, the devices all seem shiny and well maintained, and overall it was a great experience

Benjamin S.

After going to another dentist, doctor Zelby was able to fix my front two teeth so that the front two teeth were back to the same length and color. I'm so thankful he was able to make them look normal again. Dr. Zelby and his staff are so pleasant to be around as well. I highly recommend this office if you have a major problem with your teeth that need to be fixed. He can get it done and he will make sure you are happy.

Carrie G.

I had been going to the same dentist for many years and switched to Aesthetic and Implant recently. My experience with Dr Levine was incredible. I cannot be happier with the decision I made. The cleaning and other services I received were well above and beyond any other I have ever had. Highly recommend this practice to everyone!

Matthew G.

Couldn't be happier! Absolutely worth the travel time. Dr Zelby is without doubt the best - caring, knowledgeable, reassuring and very professional. Couldn't ask for better dentistry. Staff also very competent and professional. Beautiful, clean environment

Diane W.

Megan is the best dental hygienist I’ve ever had. She does a phenomenal job keeping your teeth clean, is super nice, and makes you feel right at home. The whole staff is very friendly and I couldn’t recommend this place enough!
