Abnormal growths in your mouth can understandably cause concern. The best way to gain peace of mind is to diagnose the abnormality as quickly as possible, allowing you to begin treatment immediately. We have decades of experience bringing clarity and relief through oral pathology services at the Center For Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. Local doctors and dentists trust us the most, referring their patients for full head and neck evaluations.

What We Look For

When performing oral pathology screenings, we look for any growths or abnormalities, including malignant and benign. Benign growths can be dealt with here at our practice, where our surgeons can carefully remove the unusual growth as needed.

If the biopsy reveals the presence of cancer, we will refer you to an oncology specialist in the area, ensuring you get the care you need as promptly as possible.


Why It’s Important to Have an Oral Cancer Screening

An oral cancer screening aims to detect the earliest indicators of malignancy, including mouth lesions that may soon become cancer. Catching these indicators early allows us to remove them more quickly, potentially before cancer spreads. In other words, the earlier we detect oral cancer, the more likely we can address the problem before it spreads throughout the body.
