Hi I'm Dr. Taimish & Associates, as a dentist I witness the effects of tobacco on oral health on a daily basis. Smoking causes oral cancer. Here at Norton Dental - North York we do an oral cancer screening on all our patients. It is a fact that approxomately 90% of patients diagnosed with oral cancer or pharyngeal cancer ( including cancer of the lips,mouth, throat, tongue, larynx and parts of the nose) are tobacco users. Oral cancer screening is part of your regular dental check-ups and cleanings and is one of the best ways to ensure early detection.
Tis the season where your smile matters most!
