Head and neck cancer affects the mouth, throat, sinuses, nasal cavity, larynx and salivary glands. These types of cancers are usually diagnosed in older people, but occasionally younger people develop these cancers as well.
The Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center at Dallas offers a coordinated team of a variety of physician specialists on the medical staff at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas, dentists associated with the Baylor College of Dentistry and other medical professionals, who work together to design the best diagnosis and treatment plan for each head and neck cancer patient.
