Many serious and damaging dental conditions can be successfully treated when diagnosed in the early stages of development. Our skilled dentists and team utilize the advanced VELscope® Vx tissue assessment technology to check your mouth for signs of any developing dental conditions so that you can receive the treatment you need to keep your mouth healthy. We welcome you to contact Towne Lake Family Dentistry at 770-591-7929 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Ray H. Morgan Jr. and his associates and learn more about VELscope Vx in Woodstock, Georgia.
When you receive a tissue assessment, our dentists and team use the VELscope Vx device to check your mouth for any soft tissue abnormalities. These abnormalities may include:
Bacterial infections
Evidence of trauma
Dysplastic tissue
Oral cancer
VELscope technology can often detect developing conditions before they become visible to the eye and go unnoticed, highlighting any abnormal tissues in your mouth so that our dentists can more easily diagnose the problem and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
Our team is especially concerned with checking for oral cancer, as an increasing percentage of oral cancers are discovered in patients with no known risk factors. We recommend that patients over the age of 18 be screened for this or other conditions annually. If you have a significant risk factor, our dentists will assess your mouth during each of your routine appointments.
We are committed to helping you increase your quality of life and improve your oral health. Please feel free to call our office today for more information about VELscope Vx technology and how it can benefit you.
