The Oral Pathology Process: Step-by-Step

Initial Examination and Consultation:
- A thorough oral examination is conducted to identify abnormalities.
- Diagnostic tests, such as imaging or laboratory analysis, are used for further evaluation at our Dubai clinic.
Biopsy (if necessary):
- A small sample of suspicious tissue is removed and sent to a specialized laboratory for analysis.
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning:
- Based on the biopsy results, a personalized treatment plan is developed, which may include surgical removal or other interventions.
Surgical or Non-Surgical Treatment:
- Lesions or growths are carefully removed, and adjacent tissues are preserved whenever possible.
- Non-surgical treatments, such as medications, may be recommended for certain conditions.
Follow-Up Care:
- Post-treatment follow-ups ensure complete healing and monitor for any recurrence.

Post-Treatment Care Tips:

Maintain excellent oral hygiene to prevent infections and promote healing.
Avoid spicy or acidic foods that may irritate the surgical area.

Schedule regular check-ups to monitor oral health and catch any potential issues early.
