In honor of Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Month, South Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery will offer free oral cancer screenings April 14 from 7:30 to 9:30 am at the Newnan office, located at 182-A Jefferson Parkway. To participate, interested individuals need to arrive at the specified time, date, and location, and tell the staff they would like a free oral cancer screening. The Head & Neck Cancer Foundation urges the public to get screened, as many cases go undetected until they become late-stage cancers.

"Oral cancer has an 80-90% survival rate when diagnosed early, so be vigilant with your screening, so that if there is a pathology present, it can be diagnosed and treated sooner," said Jeffrey D. Schultz DDS, MMS, of South Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.
