Tori Removal – Dr. Friedberg & Associates
Comfortable, Precise Surgical Care
At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we offer gentle and effective tori removals for patients experiencing discomfort or interference with their oral health. Tori are harmless bony growths in the mouth, but in some cases, they can make daily activities or dental procedures more difficult. Our team specializes in safe, precise removal to restore comfort and function.
What Is Tori Removal?
Tori removal is a minor surgical procedure to eliminate excess bone growth inside the mouth, often found along the lower jaw or roof of the mouth. While these growths are noncancerous, they can cause problems with speech, eating, or wearing dentures and other dental appliances.
When Is the Procedure Necessary?
Not all tori need to be removed. However, a tori removal procedure may be recommended if you are experiencing:
Difficulty fitting dentures or other restorations
Frequent irritation or injury to the tissue over the tori
Discomfort while chewing or speaking
Challenges in maintaining proper oral hygiene
