Dentistry in Malibu and Simi Valley

Oral cancer strikes more than 30,000 people per year. The five-year survival rate is about 50 percent. That means about 7500 people will die this year from oral cancer. Startling, isn't it?

Dr. Perkins considers it his duty as your trusted dental care provider to offer the latest in oral cancer detection. We use ViziLite, an innovative detection system that lets us find cancerous cells before they surface. Early detection means an 80 to 90-percent cure rate for our patients!

You may think that oral cancer strikes older people who smoke and drink. You'd be right. But more and more, oral cancer is showing up in people that don't have lifestyle risk factors. You just can't be too safe. Call to schedule your checkup with Dr. Perkins today. We'll use ViziLite at your appointment to check for oral cancer. You'll just rinse with a flavored liquid, then we'll peek into your mouth with a soft light. The quick and easy screening could save your life!
