What Are Jaw Tumours and Cysts?

Jaw tumours and cysts are growths that can develop in the jawbone or the soft tissues of the mouth and face. They can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous).

Oral hygiene, alcohol, or tobacco are key causative factors, however there are genetic elements that also come into play. Gorlin Goltz syndrome is an example, where affected individuals lack a gene which suppresses tumour growth.

There are many possible types of oral growths, and while most are harmless, it’s important to have them checked by a specialist. A thorough diagnosis and personalised treatment plan ensure your health and peace of mind.

A range of symptoms can be associated with jaw tumours and cysts and these include:

  • Jaw Pain
  • Numbness
  • Unexplained Tooth Mobility
  • Swelling
  • Mouth Ulcers
  • Unusual coloured areas / white patches inside the mouth
