Dr. Dubin, our dedicated Center City dentist, is considering the deadly statistic on oral cancer- which is ONE American dies every hour. Scary huh? Most people are very suprised to learn lives are lost to a disease that is totally curable when caught early.

Are you at risk for oral cancer? Virtually EVERYONE is. Solution…get tested!

Did you know the death rate in United States for oral cancer is higher than that of cervical cancer, Hodgkin’s disease, cancer of the brain, liver, testes, kidney or ovary? More than 30,000 Americans will receive an oral cancer diagnosis this year. In five years, only 57% will still be alive. Here’s the really scary part, 25% of oral cancer victims do not use tobacco or alcohol and have no other lifestyle risk factors.
We offer a simple test called Vizilite Plus, this technology improves Dr. Dubin’s ability to mark and evaluate suspicious areas at their earliest stages, before they can progress to something far more serious, and potentially life-threatening.

Throughout the month of January, the National Cancer Prevention Month, we have been educating our patients endlessly about this horrible disease and encouraging them to schedule a Vizilite screening. A few minutes once a year, is worth it for a healthier life!
For every paid Vizilite Plus exam, JFK Dental Care will donate $10 to The Oral Cancer Foundation. This foundation is a non-profit public service charity designed to raise awareness abour oral cancer. They also offer free health screenings to varies cities and organize cancer walks, in which Philly will have theirs in April. We will keep you posted!
Our office is holding a Vizilite Day on January 30th from 8:30am to 1:00pm. You’ll receive free head and neck exam, and when you bring in a family member or a friend, he/she will receive free oral cancer screening. So give the gift that says I LOVE YOU!

Dr. Freidman, our implant specialist, made his monthly appearance today in Center City Philadelphia at the JFK Dental Care office. This amazing implant specialist comes to us from California to place implants right here in our Center City Philadelphia office. Whether for cosmetic need or dental need, Dr. Freidman makes it quick and easy. We successfully placed three anterior implants today on a beautiful lady. We can’t wait to see her smile once we have completed the restorations on these implants. We are so proud of her choice to improve her mouth for a lifetime. Our patient is anxious to take the next step already. Another patient we have the honor to help towards a beautiful healthy smile.
