Oral Pathology

The inside of the mouth is lined with a special type of skin called mucosa, which is smooth and coral pink in colour. Any alteration in this appearance (outside of genetic pigmentations) could be a warning sign of a pathological process, such as a cancerous growth. These changes can occur anywhere in the oral cavity, including the lips, gum tissue, cheek lining, tongue and the hard or soft palate. A thorough examination is necessary to diagnose oral tissue pathologies, which may sometimes require biopsy procedures.
