The History of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) for Oral Cancer

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) has changed how we diagnose and treat oral cancers. First introduced in the 1970s, SLNB became a vital tool in the 1990s, allowing surgeons to identify the first lymph node oral cancer is likely to spread to. This has helped reduce the need for more invasive surgeries, allowing for precise staging and better treatment outcomes.

Today, SLNB is crucial for detecting the spread of oral cancer, leading to more targeted and less invasive treatments.

💬 Have questions about SLNB or oral cancer treatment? Get in touch with us to learn more about your options.

🔦 Procedure Spotlight: Maxillomandibular Advancement(MMA) Surgery for Obstructive Sleep Apnea(OSA) 🔦

💤 MMA effectively treats OSA by moving the upper and lower jaw forward to relieve airway obstruction, providing lasting relief and improved sleep quality.
The procedure also involves suspending the attached pharyngeal airway muscles in an anterior position and increasing pharyngeal soft tissue tension, further enhancing airflow and reducing apnea events.
Pre-surgical virtual scanning with 3-D imaging ensures precision and efficiency in the operating room, maximizing patient surgical outcomes.

💡 Let's shed some light

🚫 Myth: Wisdom teeth must always be removed.
✅ Fact: Wisdom teeth don’t always cause trouble when they do show up. In fact, there may not even be a need for extraction if they are healthy and properly aligned.

🔍 However, most will eventually need to be removed due to impaction, risk to neighboring healthy teeth, or hygienic difficulties, which can lead to cavities or infection.

Ready to have your Wisdom teeth extracted, call us today ☎️ 773-296-7645
