Biopsy Guelph

A biopsy involves taking a small tissue sample for detailed examination. Dr. Jarek Foksa at Downtown Dentistry can evaluate your condition and recommend whether a biopsy is needed.

Dentists may use terms like "lesion," "tumor," or "mass" to describe areas of abnormal tissue. These terms are general and signify the uncertainty surrounding the nature of the tissue. Suspicious areas may be identified during a oral examination or through internal imaging tests.

If you have concerns about abnormal tissue, schedule an appointment with Dr. Jarek Foksa at Downtown Dentistry by calling (519) 821-7640. Dr. Jarek Foksa can evaluate your condition and determine if a biopsy is necessary. We are conveniently located at 55 Cork St. E., Suite 304 in Guelph, ON. Your health comes first.
