Our office is a ViziLite Certified Office.
We have incorporated annual ViziLite Plus exams into the practice's standard of care and have met certification criteria.

We now know that oral cancer claims one life every hour in the U.S. --- more than the number of lives lost to skin cancer, cervical cancer or Hodgkin’s disease, and it is of great concern to our doctors.

  • One American dies every hour from oral cancer.

  • Survival rate has not changed significantly in over 40 years.

  • More than 25% of oral cancer victims don’t use tobacco.

Because early detection is the key to successful outcomes, this practice has incorporated ViziLite, a new, FDA-cleared medical technology for screening of oral cancer, into the standard of care of the practice, to ensure that you receive the most comprehensive oral cancer screening possible.

vizilite

ViziLite is a simple, painless and non-invasive technology that improves the doctor’s ability to visualize, evaluate and monitor suspicious areas at their earliest stages, before they can progress to something far more serious and potentially life-threatening. ViziLite helps the doctor see what he/she can’t see with the unaided eye.

On the patient’s first visit and at every annual check-up, we will be performing a ViziLite oral cancer screening. (A brochure is available for you at our office.)
