Oral/Head/Neck Cancers/Tumors

Services » Oral Surgery » Cancers/Tumors

The oral surgeons who work with Rocklin Dental Team in Rocklin, CA have all the necessary tools needed to remove abnormal growths such as cancer or tumors. Any sort of lump that developing in or around the head, neck, or mouth can potentially be very serious, and you should visit a medical professional for immediate treatment. While benign tumors simply need to be removed, there is the possibility that these tissues have developed cancer, which will usually be treated with chemotherapy after removal. As well as keeping a vigilant watch for lumps, oral cancers can show several early warning signs. All mouth tissues are usually a healthy shade of pink, so any prolonged red or white discoloration can indicate a problem. Furthermore, lesions that don’t seem to heal are another signal.

People with an elevated risk for oral cancer are males over 40, tobacco and/or alcohol users, or those with a history of cancer.
