I'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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI'm a bit worried because I recently had my wisdom teeth removed on June 17th, and just got my stitches out on June 24th. There's this gap now that seems quite visible, and I can even see a part of the tooth in there. The dentist didn't say much except to come back in 15 days, but I'm wondering if this gap might lead to an infection, especially with my eating habits. Could you tell me what I should or shouldn't be doing in the meantime?
The visible gap and exposed tooth fragment after wisdom teeth removal are common concerns; to minimize risks of infection or complications, avoid chewing hard or sticky foods, brushing too aggressively, or using a straw for 2-3 weeks; maintain good oral hygiene with gentle saltwater rinses and soft-bristled toothbrush; and schedule a follow-up appointment with your dentist as recommended to assess healing progress and address any concerns

I've been thinking about cosmetic jaw surgery to improve my smile and fix my jaw alignment, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. What are the pros and cons of getting this done? Also, how much does it usually cost in India? I'm a bit worried about recovery and potential risks but really want a better-looking jawline.
This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
