An oral biopsy is a diagnostic procedure where a small sample of tissue is removed from the mouth for laboratory examination. At London Dental Specialists, our oral surgeons carefully extract cells or tissue from suspicious areas in your mouth, gums, or jaw. The sample is then analysed under a microscope to determine if any abnormal cells are present. This procedure is essential for diagnosing conditions such as oral cancer, infections, or inflammatory lesions.
You might need an oral biopsy if your dentist at London Dental Specialists notices any unusual changes in your mouth tissue. Common reasons include:
At London Dental Specialists, we perform several types of oral biopsies depending on your specific needs:
Most patients at London Dental Specialists experience minimal discomfort during an oral biopsy. We use local anaesthesia to numb the area before the procedure, so you'll typically only feel a slight pressure or mild discomfort. After the anaesthesia wears off, you may experience some soreness at the biopsy site, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Our specialists prioritise your comfort throughout the entire process.
Preparing for an oral biopsy at London Dental Specialists is straightforward. We recommend:
At London Dental Specialists, most oral biopsy procedures take between 15 to 30 minutes to complete. The exact duration depends on the type of biopsy being performed and the location of the tissue sample. Incisional and excisional biopsies may take slightly longer than brush biopsies or fine-needle aspirations. Your dentist will provide you with a more specific timeframe based on your individual case.
After your oral biopsy at London Dental Specialists, you can expect the following:
Yes, a dental biopsy is the definitive method for diagnosing oral cancer. At London Dental Specialists, our oral surgeons remove a tissue sample from the suspicious area, which is then examined by pathologists who can identify cancerous cells under a microscope. This procedure allows us to determine if abnormal cells are present, what type they are, and their stage of development. Early detection through biopsy significantly improves treatment outcomes for oral cancer patients.
Oral biopsies at London Dental Specialists are generally safe procedures with minimal risks. However, as with any surgical procedure, potential complications may include:
Our specialists take every precaution to minimise these risks and provide comprehensive aftercare instructions.
