Safe, Precise, and Gentle Oral Surgery for Lasting Health
Cysts or benign tumors in the mouth and jaw can develop silently — often discovered during routine X-rays or dental exams.
At Dentist Istanbul, our oral and maxillofacial surgeons specialize in the early detection, precise removal, and full reconstruction of oral cysts, tumors, and lesions. Using advanced imaging and minimally invasive techniques, we ensure every cyst and tumor removal procedure is performed safely, thoroughly, and with maximum preservation of healthy tissue.
Expert surgical care focused on health, function, and long-term healing.
What Are Oral Cysts and Tumors?
An oral cyst is a fluid-filled sac, while an oral tumor is an abnormal tissue growth.
Most of these lesions are benign (non-cancerous) but can still cause damage to nearby bone, teeth, and nerves if left untreated.
They can form in the jawbone, gums, lips, or soft tissues due to:
- Impacted teeth (especially wisdom teeth)
- Chronic infections or inflammation
- Developmental anomalies
- Trauma or previous dental procedures
Early detection allows for gentle, simple removal before complications arise.
Common Types of Oral Lesions We Treat
At Dentist Istanbul, our surgeons diagnose and remove all forms of benign oral and jaw lesions, including:
Periapical (Radicular) Cysts
Form around the root of a tooth due to untreated infection or decay.
Dentigerous (Follicular) Cysts
Occur around unerupted or impacted teeth, commonly wisdom or canine teeth.
Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumors (KCOT)
Locally aggressive but benign growths in the jawbone, requiring careful surgical management.
Residual Cysts
Remain in the jaw after a tooth extraction if infection wasn’t fully cleared.
Soft Tissue Lesions / Fibromas
Benign soft tissue growths in the gums, cheeks, or lips, often caused by irritation or injury.
Every case is evaluated with detailed imaging to ensure accurate diagnosis and complete treatment.
The Cyst & Tumor Removal Procedure
We prioritize precision, safety, and minimal discomfort at every step.
Step 1: Diagnosis & Imaging
We perform digital panoramic X-rays or 3D CBCT scans to evaluate the size, location, and relation to nearby structures (teeth, nerves, sinuses).
Step 2: Anesthesia / Sedation
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia for complete comfort.
Step 3: Surgical Removal
The surgeon carefully removes the cyst or lesion along with the surrounding tissue if necessary to prevent recurrence.
Step 4: Reconstruction (if required)
If significant bone or tissue was removed, bone grafting or soft tissue repair may be performed during the same procedure.
Step 5: Closure & Recovery
The area is cleaned, sutured, and protected to ensure fast, healthy healing.
Most procedures are completed in one session with minimal downtime.
Aftercare & Healing
After surgery, patients typically experience mild swelling or tenderness for a few days — easily managed with prescribed care.
We provide full post-operative support, including:
- Pain management and antibiotics if needed
- Ice therapy and soft food diet for 2–3 days
- Oral hygiene and follow-up check-ups
- Post-surgical imaging to confirm complete healing
Early follow-up helps ensure successful recovery and prevent recurrence.
Why Early Treatment Matters
Even benign cysts can expand over time, leading to:
- Jawbone thinning or fractures
- Tooth displacement or loss
- Infection and pain
- Facial asymmetry or swelling
Timely surgical care prevents complications and ensures full oral health restoration.
