At Ghina Morad, DMD, we use VELscope, a handheld scope that uses reflective light technology to detect oral cancer. We detected 3 cases of oral cancer in 2019, one of them being a squamous cell carcinoma in the tongue - detecting cancer early literally saved this patient's life!

Just wanted to pop into your feed and say have a wonderful weekend! Oh, and don’t forget to floss.✨
Your body isn’t Amazon Prime - It takes more than 2 days to get what you want.👏👏

Oral health comes with time and consistency! Whatever your dental goals might be, it’s important to take small steps every day to achieve them. So here are a few things you can do, starting today, to improve your dental health.

Sometimes it may be easier to just go to bed without brushing your teeth or to skip flossing if you feel like you don’t need it, but don’t underestimate the power of plaque!
𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐒𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬
Anything that is too acidic or contains too much sugar can break down your enamel. Weakening of the enamel can lead to cavities and dental disease, so it’s best to avoid harmful foods altogether.

You should be visiting your dentist every six months for a professional dental cleaning and checkup. No matter how well you care for your smile, you can’t remove tartar without the help of a dental health professional.

Are you brushing your teeth correctly?! We’ve got a few tips to improve your technique!⤵
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🦷 Place your toothbrush at a 45° angle to the gums.
🦷 *Gently* move the brush back and forth in short strokes.
🦷 Brush the outer surface, inner surface, and the chewing surface of the teeth.
🦷 To clean the inside surface of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Happy brushing!
When was the last time you flossed?🦷 Getting into the habit of flossing can be really hard. We recommend starting off with small goals to encourage good habits!🙌
