WE ARE CERTIFIED VIZILITE PROVIDERS
ViziLite Plus as part of a comprehensive oral screening
We are proud to be using this very new technology in our office. We never think twice about having Pap smears, PSA tests and mammograms for early detection of cancers. The American Cancer Society estimates a 5.5% increase in new cases of oral cancer. Smoking, alcohol, genetics and human papilloma virus are some of the factors that could put you at risk. Now, this new test can save lives by early detection.
Oral cancer is one of the most curable diseases when it's caught early. That's why the ViziLite Plus exam has been developed. ViziLite Plus uses technology that has proven successful in identifying soft tissue abnormalities in other areas of the body. A ViziLite Plus exam is particularly important if you are at increased risk for developing oral cancer.
The ViziLite Plus exam can help Dr Lazerwitz, Nancyand Lisa identify abnormal tissue that might develop into oral cancer.
An annual ViziLite Plus exam, in combination with a regular visual examination, provides a comprehensive oral screening procedure for patients at increased risk for oral cancer. The ViziLite Plus exam is painless and fast, and could help save your life.
ViziLite Plus is performed immediately following a regular visual examination
- First, you will be instructed to rinse with a cleansing solution
- Next, the overhead lighting will be dimmed.
- Then, your dental professional will examine your mouth using ViziLite Plus, a specially designed light technology.
