Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology

Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology is a specialized field of pathology focused on the study and diagnosis of diseases affecting the mouth, jaw, and facial structures. Oral pathologists examine tissue samples obtained from oral and facial lesions, such as those in the gums, lips, salivary glands, and jawbones, to identify various conditions, including oral cancers, oral infections, and autoimmune disorders. Precise diagnosis is essential for timely treatment and management. Moreover, this field contributes significantly to dental and medical research, enhancing our understanding of oral and maxillofacial diseases, which in turn improves patient care and outcomes. It plays a crucial role in maintaining overall oral health and quality of life.
