Common oral lesions include leukoplakia (white patches), erythroplakia (red patches), oral lichen planus, oral submucous fibrosis, and traumatic ulcers. These conditions may result from chronic irritation, tobacco use, nutritional deficiencies, autoimmune disorders, or underlying systemic diseases. Some lesions may have malignant potential, making early diagnosis and monitoring critical for effective management and cancer prevention.
Our approach to oral lesion management includes:
Thorough Clinical Examination – A detailed visual and physical examination of the oral cavity is conducted to identify suspicious lesions.
Advanced Diagnostic Tools – We utilize diagnostic adjuncts like biopsy, cytology, toluidine blue staining, and imaging to accurately assess lesion type and severity.
Risk Assessment – Patients are evaluated for risk factors such as tobacco and alcohol use, betel nut chewing, or genetic predisposition.
Individualized Treatment Plans – Based on the lesion type and underlying cause, treatment may include medication, surgical excision, laser therapy, habit counseling, or regular monitoring.
Patient Education and Follow-up – We ensure patients are well-informed about their condition, risk factors, and follow-up care to support long-term oral health.
At our clinic, we emphasize early detection and preventive care. Identifying lesions in their initial stages allows for more conservative treatment and significantly reduces the risk of progression to malignancy. Our team is committed to delivering safe, effective, and evidence-based care with a compassionate approach.
