View allI'm trying to figure out how much it might cost to have an oral fibroma surgically removed. It's on the inside of my cheek and developed because my braces keep rubbing against it. Any idea what the cost could be?
The cost of surgically removing an oral fibroma can range from 5,000 to 50,000 or more, depending on factors like location, surgeon's expertise, hospital or clinic fees, and the complexity of the procedure, and in your case, since the fibroma is caused by friction from braces, your orthodontist or oral surgeon may recommend a simple excision procedure under local anesthesia.
