Oral pathology is the study and diagnosis of diseases that affect the mouth, jaw, and surrounding areas. At Oak Hills Dentistry, we provide comprehensive oral pathology services to diagnose and treat conditions such as oral cancer, cysts, and other abnormalities that may affect your oral health. Benefits of Oral Pathology: • Early detection and diagnosis of oral diseases • Targeted treatment options for a variety of conditions • Comprehensive care with a focus on prevention
Oral cancer screenings are part of regular exams to detect early signs of cancer, including unusual growths or lesions in the mouth.
If a biopsy is required, we will safely remove a small tissue sample to test for abnormalities and provide you with results promptly.
Treatments for oral pathology conditions vary, and many can be addressed with minimal discomfort. Your oral surgeon will discuss your treatment options, which may include medications, surgery, or other interventions.
Typically, biopsy results take about a week to ten days, depending on the laboratory and the complexity of the analysis. Your oral surgeon will inform you as soon as the results are available.
"I highly recommend Dr. Bradstreet for your dental care. He and his entire staff make me feel so comfortable for my visits. I also feel secure in knowing he is using all the latest technology and expertise. I have been going to this same office for more than 15 years, first with Dr. Laura Matin, who was wonderful, too. She retired and picked a great dentist, Dr. Bradstreet, to take over her dental practice."
