Facts About Biopsy

  • An oral biopsy is a medical test to diagnose suspicious lesions or tumors in the mouth or throat.
  • During this procedure, our dentist removes a small tissue sample from the affected area for examination under a microscope by pathologists specializing in diagnosing cancerous growths.
  • This procedure can help determine whether abnormal cells are benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). 

Why Choose Biopsy?

Suppose your doctor suspects you may have an underlying condition like cancer. In that case, they will often recommend having an oral biopsy performed. An oral biopsy can provide valuable information about any abnormality in your mouth and allow us to make more informed decisions regarding further treatments if necessary. Furthermore, it can also give us insights into potential risks for developing certain diseases like head & neck cancers later.


Process Of Biopsy

Our team at Dental Artistry performs all types of biopsies, including those done within our clinic and those sent offsite for evaluation by specialized pathology laboratories. Our dentists carefully remove only the amount needed from suspect areas before sending them off for analysis. The results usually come back within 1-2 weeks, allowing our doctors to recommend appropriate follow-up treatments based on their findings.

Care For Your Teeth After Biopsy

Patients are expected to experience discomfort after undergoing an oral biopsy, primarily due to soreness around the site being tested alongside swelling, bleeding, etc. Post-operative instructions include avoiding crunchy foods/beverages, not flossing near incision sites & taking over-the-counter medications to help alleviate pain. Patients are advised to follow up with our office within a week after the procedure to ensure proper healing.

I just recently received treatment for a broken tooth, and I got to say that I have found a dentist for life. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They treat you like family and quite frankly I got to say that I was terrified of going to the dentist always and now I think that I’m very comfortable knowing that I’m in good hands. I would recommend dental artistry to anybody that is looking for a very professional and family environment. Awesome!

Not a dentist appointment fan, but here they made sure I felt at ease and comfortable. I had the most comprehensive new-patient exam and left knowing exactly what my options are. 100% recommended! Friendly, client-oriented, professional and knowledgeable staff. They know how to take care of patients who struggle with dental visits.

To say I was impressed by the extremely thoughtful and professional service is an understatement. I have been to various dentist throughout my life and the women at Dental Artistry surpassed my expectations. If you are looking for a new dentist and you are not a fan of going to one in the first place, look no further. You will feel like you are at home and you will feel that you are cared for--because you are! They even have Netflix to watch on noise-cancelling headphones while you are getting your treatment (in case you don't like the sound of the tools on your teeth).

My experience with Dental Artistry has been lovely. All the women that work there are kind, friendly, and professional. After years of avoiding the dentist, I needed to have significant work done. The treatment has been painless and quick.

You know how you can sometimes be skeptical when you see an overwhelming number of positive reviews on a company's website? Especially when some comments seem too enthusiastic to be true? Well, those are the kind of reviews I was reading on the Dental Artistry site so I decided to drive to their office in Irving to check them out. I was so impressed I signed up for an appointment that very day. Since then I've had some procedures done and am working with them on a plan for my long-term dental care.
