Specializes in Dentistry

Diagnosis: A biopsy is performed so that the tissue sample can be examined to determine the makeup of the lesion. In many instances, one cannot tell what a lesion is unless it is examined under a microscope. By knowing what the lesion is, treatment can be started if necessary.
