Our skilled team ensures a comfortable and precise procedure, offering peace of mind and timely treatment.
What Is an Oral Biopsy?
A biopsy of oral lesions involves excising a small piece of tissue from a questionable area in the mouth for laboratory analysis. This test is crucial in establishing whether the lesion is benign or warrants further medical attention. Early identification and swift action play a key role in achieving successful oral health outcomes.
When Is an Oral Biopsy Needed?
Your local dentist may recommend a biopsy if you have:
✔ A persistent sore that doesn’t heal within two weeks
✔ Unexplained red or white patches in the mouth
✔ Lumps or swelling in the gums, tongue, or inner cheeks
✔ Chronic pain or irritation without a clear cause
✔ A suspicious growth that changes in size or shape
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, visiting the closest dentist to your location can help in early diagnosis and treatment.
Types of Oral Biopsies
At KK Dental, we offer different types of biopsies based on your specific needs:
🔹 Incisional Biopsy – A small piece of the lesion is removed for examination.
🔹 Excisional Biopsy – The entire lesion is removed when it’s small enough.
🔹 Brush Biopsy – A non-invasive technique using a brush to collect cells from the surface of the lesion.
Our experienced Edison, somerset & North Brunswick dentists will determine the best biopsy method based on your condition.
