When Is a Biopsy or Removal Necessary?

Lesions, cysts, or tumors in the mouth, jaw, or facial structures should be evaluated by a specialist to determine whether they are benign or require further treatment. Common reasons for a biopsy or removal include:

  • Persistent or unusual growths in the oral cavity or jaw.
  • Cysts associated with impacted teeth, which may cause damage to surrounding bone or tissue.
  • Suspicious lesions that do not heal or change in size, color, or texture.
  • Benign tumors that may cause discomfort or interfere with normal oral function.
  • Precancerous or cancerous growths, requiring early diagnosis and intervention.

Early detection and treatment can help prevent complications and improve outcomes.

What to Expect During the Procedure

The procedure varies depending on the size, location, and nature of the lesion. Steps may include:

  • Evaluation & Imaging – X-rays or 3D imaging may be used to assess the extent of the lesion.
  • Biopsy – A small tissue sample is taken and sent to a lab for analysis.
  • Surgical Removal – If necessary, the entire lesion, cyst, or tumor is excised with precision to preserve healthy tissue.
  • Recovery & Follow-Up – Patients receive post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing.

Our team prioritizes patient comfort and utilizes advanced surgical techniques for optimal healing and minimal discomfort.
