April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month. As oral surgery specialists, we want to make sure our patients know what to look for. 🦷
Early detection saves lives. Here are signs you should never ignore:
→ A mouth sore that hasn't healed in 2+ weeks
→ Unexplained red or white patches
→ A lump or thickening in your cheek or neck
→ Persistent pain, numbness, or tenderness
→ Difficulty chewing, swallowing, or speaking
If you notice any of these, don't wait. Give us a call at 510-724-3922. We're here to help.
