Specialized Treatment for Oral and Facial Tumors
At Macomb Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Shelby Township, Michigan, we are committed to providing comprehensive care for patients with oral and facial tumors. Dr. Joseph Hildebrand leads our team in offering personalized treatments that ensure both the successful removal of tumors and the preservation of your oral health and function.
Tumor removal involves the surgical excision of abnormal growths in the mouth, jaw, or surrounding areas. These growths can vary in size and type, ranging from benign cysts to potentially malignant tumors. Identifying and removing tumors as early as possible is essential in maintaining your overall well-being.
Early intervention in tumor removal is crucial for several reasons:
At Macomb Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, our team’s expertise, cutting-edge technology, and commitment to compassionate care ensure that every patient receives the best possible outcome. From your first consultation to your final follow-up, we are here to support you through the process with clear communication and a focus on your comfort.
If you’ve noticed any unusual growths or symptoms in your mouth, jaw, or face, it’s essential to address them as soon as possible. Early diagnosis and intervention are key to your recovery. Call us at (586) 731-9050 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Joseph Hildebrand, and take the first step toward better health.
If the tumor is malignant, further treatment like radiation or chemotherapy may be necessary. Dr. Hildebrand will discuss your options and refer you to a specialist if needed for follow-up care.
The procedure is done with local anesthesia, and sedation options are available for added comfort. The tumor is carefully removed using advanced surgical techniques to minimize disruption to healthy tissue.
Recovery times vary based on the tumor’s size and location. However, most patients experience a quick recovery, with noticeable improvements in a few days. Detailed post-operative instructions will guide your healing process.
We remove both benign and malignant tumors, including cysts, fibromas, and oral cancers, depending on the nature of the growth. Early removal ensures better outcomes.
