Oral Cancer Screening with VELscope

Dentist in Bellingham, WA

We are excited to offer a new and important service at our practice - Oral Cancer Screening with VELscope.

What is VELscope?

VELscope is a safe, non-invasive, and quick screening tool designed to help us detect oral cancer and pre-cancerous conditions at the earliest stages - even before they're visible to the naked eye. Early detection is key in improving outcomes and ensuring better overall health, so we're excited to provide this enhanced service to you.

 

What does this mean for you?

  • Quick and Painless: The VELscope screening takes just a few minutes and is completely comfortable.
  • Non-Invasive: No need for biopsies or complex procedures-this light-based tool will help us detect changes in the soft tissues of your mouth.
  • Peace of Mind: By catching potential issues early, we can help address them before they become more serious.

 

If you're due for your next visit, or if you have any concerns about your oral health, we encourage you to ask about this new service at your next appointment. We are here to help ensure your smile stays healthy and vibrant for years to come!

If you'd like more information or would like to schedule your appointment, please feel free to reach out to us at (360) 752-1600.
