Conditions that May Become Cancer if Ignored

Chronic traumatic ulcers
If the same area gets hurt again and again, it can become a precancerous stage called dysplasia. If ignored, this can turn into cancer.
Tobacco-related patches
Chewing tobacco or betel nuts can cause red or thick white patches, called erythroplakia or verrucous hyperplasia. These are warning signs. Surgery at the right time can remove them before they turn cancerous.
What If It is Dangerous?
If a mouth sore doesn't heal in 15 days, you need a specialist check-up. At Epion Clinic, we focus on finding the cause quickly and clearly. That's where diagnosis and biopsy come in.
A biopsy is when a small sample is taken from the sore. It’s sent to a lab to check if the cells are normal, pre-cancerous, or cancerous. The whole process is simple and done with local anaesthesia. You won't feel pain—just a little pinch. It may take a few days for results, but it gives you real answers.
Dr. Niladri Sekhar Bakshi is a maxillofacial surgeon who may suggest a biopsy—a painless test to determine whether the sore is cancerous. Dr. Bakshi checks the sore’s location, shape, and cause. If needed, he performs a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. His skill ensures the right diagnosis, guiding safe and accurate treatment without delay.
