That\u2019s why our routine checkup includes a cancer screening of the entire mouth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Dentists can help diagnose obstructive sleep apnea, which affects millions of people across the U.S. Left untreated, chronic sleep apnea can lead to heart, kidney, and other serious health complications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Dentists have extensive training in the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the head and neck that allows us to diagnose and manage a number of health conditions beyond just your teeth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The field of dentistry is always evolving, as are the needs of our patients. That\u2019s why we maintain a strong commitment to continuing our education and training on the latest advancements in diagnosis, treatments and technology.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>During your next visit to our friendly dentist at OB1 Dental, you can rest assured that you are in the hands of a highly trained professional dedicated to your overall health.
