Birbe Clinic, dedicated to jaw cyst surgery in Barcelona
The face is not exempt from cysts or tumors, and one of the areas where they can appear is the jaw. But what is a cyst in the mouth? It is a lesion that develops in the jawbone or in the soft tissues or in relation to the teeth. These cysts, which we sometimes classify as odontogenic or non-odontogenic, can be benign or malignant and also vary in size.
Depending on the severity of the cyst, the patient will have to undergo one treatment or another. Therefore, before making any decision, at Birbe Clinic we will carry out a diagnosis by biopsy and CT scan and, based on the results, we will establish a treatment plan.
The most common option for treating these cysts is usually surgery, or in some cases, medical therapy or a combination of both.
Mouth cyst: symptoms and causes of this condition
Anyone who suspects they have a cyst in the mouth should see a maxillofacial surgeon, so that specialists in this area can evaluate the case, give a diagnosis and, of course, solve the problem.
One of the peculiarities of a cyst in the mouth is that for a time, it may not hurt and, for this reason, it is difficult for the patient to identify this disease. The most common symptoms are: a bulging or infection of the bone structure, loss or reduced sensitivity of the teeth and lip (paraesthesia), mobility of the teeth and, in the most severe cases, a pathological fracture of the jaw.
In general, the causes of jaw cysts can be related to dental infections, and some are related to genetic changes or genetic syndromes and even metabolic alterations of calcium.

What is the jaw cyst operation like?
Before surgery, at Birbe Clinic, a study of the cyst is carried out to analyze its origin, its size and, therefore, to define the most appropriate treatment. In this case, the treatment options vary according to the type of lesion, the extent and growth of the cyst. However, surgery is usually the first and often the only option to treat this type of lesion. During the operation, the surgeon removes the jaw cyst, usually under deep sedation as anesthesia. Once the cystic cavity is completely clean, bone regeneration techniques might help regenerate the bone volume. However, on occasions, this removal may include the extraction of a tooth, tissue and nearby jawbone if they are also damaged.
What is the recovery from jaw cyst surgery like?
Jaw cyst surgery usually involves a painless postoperative period, although some swelling may appear a few days after the operation. The swelling will vary depending on the type and size of the cyst removed. During the postoperative period, it is essential for the patient to avoid smoking and maintain strict oral hygiene, as good cleanliness is the most important thing to avoid infections in the operated area. It is also crucial that the patient follows the surgeon's instructions and recommendations, as well as attending post-operative check-ups to avoid any setbacks and, of course, to ensure that the recovery is satisfactory. If a tooth, bone and tissue have had to be removed during surgery, it will be necessary to wait for the area to regenerate before proceeding with dental implants.
How can a cyst in the mouth be prevented?
At Birbe Clinic we advise our patients to maintain good oral health and to remove wisdom teeth and other included teeth to reduce the possibility of cysts and other pathologies such as caries, infections or deterioration of teeth and gums. Undoubtedly, at Birbe Clinic, we have a team of doctors and surgeons who have the experience and knowledge necessary to find the right solution to each problem. We are the reference clinic for jaw cyst surgery in Barcelona.
