Oral biopsies are performed to examine suspicious lesions or abnormal tissue in the mouth or jaw. At Airlie Oral Surgery, we utilize the latest techniques to safely remove tissue samples for analysis. The biopsy allows us to determine whether a lesion is benign or malignant, enabling us to develop the most appropriate treatment plan for your oral health.
During an oral biopsy, a small sample of tissue is carefully removed from the affected area. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, ensuring comfort throughout the procedure. The tissue sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis, and results typically take a few days. Once the results are in, we discuss the findings and outline the next steps for treatment based on the diagnosis.
