The Velo Project

The Velo Project starts in May. Join us on our blogs and Andy Velo blogs for up to date and continuous progress reports as we completely make over Andy's face. This budding country music star, movie idol, and sports hero of North Gwinnett High School and now the college campuses of Georgia and the surrounding states, will be doing a total cosmetic makeover in the next year. Watch the stages unfold and the progress here and in other social media (facebook, myspace, suwaneedental.Com, etc). We will unveil some of the secrets of dentistry and some of the mysteries of moving teeth through bone, lasers and how they cut bone and tooth and gums, simple wisdom teeth impaction techniques, dental "chill with the pill" sedation and more and more.

The Velo Project will be especially meaningful to teens...log in weekly.

Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Week is coming!!!

I want to encourage everyone to have an oral cancer screening this year. Did you know that Oral Cancer claims one life every hour according to the Oral Cancer Foundation? Early detection is the key and has an 80% to 90% survival rate.
With a new technological development called the VELScope, Our doctors, at Suwanee Dental Care can screen the entire mouth to find anything under the surface that may be invisible to the naked eye. Oral Cancer often cannot be seen or felt without these special techniques. By the time a lump is found or pain is felt, advanced stages have set in and the chances of survival are very low.

Oral cancer can form in any part of the mouth or throat. Most oral cancers begin in the tongue and in the floor of the mouth. Anyone can get oral cancer, but the risk is higher if you are male, over age 40, use tobacco or alcohol or have a history of head or neck cancer. Frequent sun exposure is also a risk for lip cancer.

Symptoms of oral cancer include

• White or red patches in your mouth
• A mouth sore that won't heal
• Bleeding in your mouth
• Loose teeth
• Problems or pain with swallowing
• A lump in your neck
• An earache

We are dedicated to your health! Please take Oral Cancer seriously and ask us about your screening for 2009!

Please contact our office for more details.
