Biopsy – Dr. Friedberg & Associates
Accurate Diagnosis for Better Oral Health
At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we provide professional biopsies to accurately diagnose abnormalities in the mouth. If you have an unusual growth, sore, or lesion that doesn’t heal, this procedure allows us to determine the cause and recommend the most effective treatment plan.
What Is a Biopsy?
A biopsy is a simple procedure in which a small sample of tissue is taken from an area of concern. The sample is then sent to a specialized laboratory for analysis. This process helps identify conditions ranging from minor infections to potentially serious diseases, including oral cancer.
When Is It Recommended?
You may need a biopsy if you have:
-
Persistent sores or ulcers in the mouth
-
White or red patches on the gums, tongue, or cheeks
-
Lumps, thickened tissue, or unexplained swelling
-
Lesions that do not heal within two weeks
