Abnormalities of the oral mucosa
Plan your appointment
Diagnosis
At the first consultation, the surgeon performs a thorough examination to determine the nature of the mucosal abnormality. In some cases, further tests (biopsy, imaging) is required to make a correct diagnosis.
Treatment
Treatment depends on the type of mucosal abnormality. Some abnormalities can be easily removed under local anaesthesia, while others require more complex treatment, such as laser therapy or surgical correction. Your doctor works closely with the oncology department to rule out any potential risks of malignant conditions.
Recovery and aftercare
After treatment, you will have several follow-up appointments with your doctor. This way, recovery can be monitored and your doctor can assess whether the abnormality has completely disappeared. If necessary, he or she may refer you to other specialists.
