PATHOLOGY
Longleaf Dental is concerned with our patients’ overall health. Through oral pathology, we are able to assess a person’s general as well as dental health by observing the tissues and membranes inside the mouth for indications of serious diseases. Discolored tissue (typically, red and white splotches), persistent sore throat, difficulty chewing and swallowing, and lumps inside the mouth are all warning signs that should be taken seriously.
Drs, Singleton and Clark can examine changes in the lips, gums, tongue, cheeks, and mouth to diagnose and treat oral diseases, including cancer. If you have noticed suspicious symptoms, contact Longleaf Dental today to schedule an appointment.
We cannot express enough how important it is to see your dentist regularly.
Remember, preventing disease is always better than treating disease.
