Oral Pathology
Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons are experts in diagnosing and
treating diseases of the mouth.
Normally the inside of the mouth is smooth and pink in color. Any
change in this appearance could be a warning sign for disease.
The following symptoms could be a sign of disease or pre
cancerous growth:
- Reddish patches (erythroplasia) or whitish patches (leukoplakia) in the mouth
- A sore that fails to heal and bleeds easily
- A lump or thickening on the skin lining the inside of the mouth
- Chronic sore throat or hoarseness
- Difficulty in chewing or swallowing
If you feel that you or someone you know has any of these symptoms, please contact us so we may help you.
