  A dental exam doesn’t only benefit your teeth, but it can benefit your overall health. Our dentists in Pittston, PA can spot emerging medical issues like heart disease, oral or throat cancers, and diabetes. All these issues can become life-threatening, but doctors can treat them successfully if caught in their early stages.
• X-rays
• Oral Cancer Screening
  If our dentists near you spot the early signs of cancer during oral cancer screenings in Pittston, PA, the prognosis often gives the patients an excellent chance of survival.

For instance, if someone has Stage IV mouth cancer, the survival rate is about 30 percent.
