Oral Pathology

Pathologic diseases of the facial region can encompass a wide variety of lesions.

Any tissue may become aberrant and, therefore, arise into a tumor.

In many cases, to arrive at a proper diagnosis, a biopsy (taking of a small piece of the tumor) is a necessary procedure.

We stress to our patients to have any lump or lesion evaluated when first detected.
