Frequently Asked Questions

About Oral Pathology

What is oral cancer screening?

Oral cancer screenings are part of regular exams to detect early signs of cancer, including unusual growths or lesions in the mouth.

What happens if I need a biopsy?

If a biopsy is required, we will safely remove a small tissue sample to test for abnormalities and provide you with results promptly.

Is oral pathology treatment painful?

Treatments for oral pathology conditions vary, and many can be addressed with minimal discomfort. Your oral surgeon will discuss your treatment options, which may include medications, surgery, or other interventions.

How long does it take to get results from a biopsy?

Typically, biopsy results take about a week to ten days, depending on the laboratory and the complexity of the analysis. Your oral surgeon will inform you as soon as the results are available.
