What we diagnose and treat - precancerous conditions, benign tumors, jaw cysts, salivary gland disorders
What we diagnose and treat:
Histological examination—a mandatorystep:
Any excised tissue—whether it is a small biopsy from the gingiva, an entire cyst, a tumor, or a mucosal lesion—is sent for histological examination to an accreditedpathology laboratory.
The clinic is staffed by a multidisciplinary team of specialists, including oral surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, anesthesiologists, and oncologists, among whom is Dr. Yulia Kyuchukova (a specialist with extensive experience in hospital surgical practice).
Any sore, ulcer, or white/red spot that does not heal within 2 weeks requires a mandatory examination by a dentist or oral surgeon. This is the basic rule for preventing oral cancer.
Symptoms may include:
A persistent sore or lump that does not heal.
Unexplained pain or numbness in the oral cavity.
Difficulty swallowing, speaking, or moving the tongue.
Appearance of white (leukoplakia) or red (erythroplakia) patches on the mucous membrane.
It can also be completely asymptomatic.
The main factors include:
Smoking and alcohol consumption.
Poor oral hygiene.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.
An unbalanced diet leading to vitamin deficiencies (especially B vitamins, iron, and zinc).
Injuries from broken teeth or poorly fitted dentures.
Treatment depends entirely on the diagnosis. It may include topical medications, and in some cases—surgical removal of the lesion and submission of the tissue for histological examination.
