Oral Growth Removals

At Animal Medical Center of Crystal Lake, we provide dental extractions to ensure your pet’s oral health and alleviate pain.

Oral Growth Removals

Oral growth removals involve the surgical removal of abnormal growths or masses in the mouth. These growths can vary in size and type, ranging from benign tumors to potentially malignant lesions. Our veterinarians perform thorough examinations and diagnostics to determine the nature of the growth and recommend the most appropriate treatment.

Types of Oral Growth Removals

Depending on the nature and location of the oral growth, different surgical techniques may be employed. Our veterinary team is experienced in performing delicate procedures to safely remove growths while minimizing discomfort and risk to your pet.

Benefits of Oral Growth Removals

There are several important benefits to having oral growths removed from your pet:

Diagnosis and Treatment

Removing oral growths allows for a definitive diagnosis through histopathological examination. This helps determine whether the growth is benign or malignant, guiding further treatment options.

Pain Relief

Oral growths can cause pain, discomfort, and difficulty eating or swallowing. Removing these growths alleviates these symptoms and improves your pet’s quality of life.

Prevention of Complications

Some oral growths can lead to complications such as infections or obstruction of normal mouth functions. Surgical removal prevents these complications from occurring and ensures your pet’s continued health.

When to Consider Oral Growth Removals for Your Pet

You should consider oral growth removals if you notice any of the following signs in your pet:

  • Persistent swelling or growth in the mouth
  • Difficulty eating or swallowing
  • Drooling excessively
  • Bleeding from the mouth
  • Bad breath that persists despite dental care

Early detection and prompt treatment are crucial for successful outcomes. Our veterinarians will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
