What Is a Tumor/Fibroma?
Tumors or fibromas, which can sometimes be found in the oral cavity, are essentially masses of connective tissue that usually grow in response to trauma or localized irritation. Depending on their makeup, they can be soft or hard, and pink or white. They are usually benign, but they can get bigger when irritated or simply over time. The most common places to find a tumor or fibroma are on the top or sides of the mouth, inside of your cheeks or anywhere on your lips. At Neighbourhood Dental, we use the latest techniques in both the removal and biopsy of oral growths, ensuring minimal discomfort and a quick recovery.
How to Treat a Tumor/Fibroma?
At Neighbourhood Dental, we generally say that removal of the tumor/fibroma is often the best treatment. A surgically trained dentist or oral surgeon will usually remove portions of the tumor/fibroma to flatten the skin profile, and then close the resulting wound with stitches or a laser. Sometimes your dentist will determine that a biopsy of the tissue removed should be done simply as precaution to rule out the presence of cancer. A biopsy is a crucial diagnostic procedure when it comes to identifying the nature of abnormal tissue growth. During the procedure, a small sample of the suspicious tissue is carefully extracted and sent to a pathology lab for analysis. The results will help our team determine the best course of action for treatment, whether that involves simple removal or more extensive procedures. Whatever your tumor or fibroma is, Neighbourhood Dental is here to help you on the road to optimal health and wellness.
