Early diagnosis and treatment of oral pathology significantly improves outcomes. If you notice any unusual changes in your mouth, don't wait - schedule an evaluation promptly.
Dr. Barkin diagnoses and treats a wide range of oral pathology conditions.
Fluid-filled sacs that can develop in the jaw or soft tissues, often requiring surgical removal to prevent damage to surrounding structures.
Both benign and malignant growths in the oral cavity that require biopsy, diagnosis, and appropriate treatment.
Abnormalities of the oral mucosa including white patches (leukoplakia), red patches (erythroplakia), and other suspicious changes.
Conditions affecting the jawbone such as ameloblastoma, odontogenic tumors, and fibrous dysplasia.
Contact our office if you experience any of these symptoms persisting for more than two weeks:
A biopsy is the removal of a small tissue sample for laboratory analysis. It's the only definitive way to diagnose oral pathology and determine if a lesion is benign or malignant.
No, many oral growths are benign. However, all suspicious lesions should be evaluated by a specialist to rule out malignancy and determine appropriate treatment.
Most biopsy results are available within 1-2 weeks. Dr. Barkin will contact you as soon as results are received to discuss findings and treatment options.
Treatment depends on the diagnosis. Benign lesions may require simple removal, while malignant findings involve coordination with oncology specialists for comprehensive care.
Don't wait. Schedule an evaluation with Dr. Barkin for expert diagnosis and treatment of oral pathology.
