Our practice offers treatment for a wide range of jaw, oral, and facial pathology, including benign cysts and tumors. Some common benign jaw cysts and tumors include:
- Odontogenic cysts: These are cysts that develop from the cells that form the teeth. They are usually benign, but can grow large and cause problems if left untreated.
- Dentigerous cysts: These are cysts that form around the crown of an unerupted tooth. They are usually benign, but can cause problems if left untreated.
- Ameloblastoma: This is a benign tumor that develops in the jaw and is usually found in the back of the jaw.
- Fibroma: This is a benign tumor that develops in the connective tissue of the jaw.
- Lipoma: This is a benign tumor that develops in the fatty tissue of the jaw.
Our team of highly trained and experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons utilize the latest diagnostic tools and techniques to diagnose these conditions accurately. For benign cysts and tumors, we may recommend surgical removal as a treatment option. This can be done through a variety of techniques, including simple excision or marsupialization.
We understand that a diagnosis of jaw, oral, or facial pathology can be overwhelming and we make sure to provide our patients with the emotional support and guidance that they need to make informed decisions about their care. We are dedicated to providing the highest standard of care and are committed to ensuring that our patients receive the best possible outcome.
