I have a small mucocele under 1 cm on my lower lip that doesn't seem to be going away. Is it something to worry about if I don't want to get surgery for it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A small mucocele (mucous cyst) on your lower lip, under 1 cm, is usually not a cause for immediate concern if it's not causing any pain, discomfort, or interfering with your ability to eat, talk, or swallow. However, it's best to monitor it and see a dentist if it persists for more than a few weeks or if you notice any changes.

My brother in the US got an xray showing his wisdom teeth are growing abnormally - 3 teeth with 2 in weird positions. The doctors there recommended removal surgery. He's coming to Mumbai in September for treatment. Is surgery the only option here? Who would be the best specialist to consult for this in Mumbai?
Wisdom teeth surgery is typically the best option for abnormal growth or positioning, especially if they cause pain or potential dental complications. In Mumbai, top oral surgeons or maxillofacial specialists can assess your brother’s case. Look for experts at dental hospitals like Dr. Kothari’s Dental Clinic or Smile Essentials.
