Soft Tissue Surgery
Specialist management of frenectomies, biopsies, and other soft tissue conditions in the oral cavity.
Overview
Soft tissue surgery encompasses a range of procedures addressing conditions affecting the gums, lips, cheeks, tongue, and other soft tissues of the mouth. At Sydney Specialist Oral Surgery, Dr Thao Truong provides expert surgical management of these conditions, from simple frenectomies to complex tissue biopsies.
Common soft tissue procedures include frenectomy (release of restrictive tissue attachments), excision of mucoceles and fibromas, biopsy of suspicious lesions, and management of oral ulcers or growths. These procedures are typically performed under local anaesthesia with minimal downtime.
