Oral ID Technology by Forward Science
Dr. Lokitis offers advanced oral cancer screenings using the Oral ID device by Forward Science. This innovative tool utilizes fluorescence technology to help Dr. Lokitis detect oral mucosal abnormalities, including oral cancer and pre-cancerous spots on the lips, inside the mouth, and in the throat. Early detection is key to successful treatment, and we are committed to providing the best care for your health and peace of mind.
Health Scan by Itero
Dr. Lokitis completes a Health Scan free of charge, for every patient. Itero, a cutting-edge, non-invasive tool that captures highly detailed images of your teeth, gums, and jawbone. Using a small handheld wand, the iTero scanner takes thousands of high-resolution pictures to create a 3D model of your mouth. This quick, painless, and radiation-free process typically takes just 3-5 minutes. The iTero Health Scan is an invaluable tool for monitoring your dental health. It aids in identifying potential cavities, gum disease, and early signs of wear on your teeth and gums. With this advanced technology, we can provide a more comprehensive and proactive approach to your care.
