Can Jaw Tumors Be Cured

Benign tumors of the jaw can be cured by surgical removal; malignant tumors of the jaw are generally not curable. Jaw tumors may be caused by the long-term development of dental disease and inflammation. They can be classified as benign and malignant tumors, both of which require surgical removal. In the case of benign tumors, most are treated with local excision and are generally curable. If it is a malignant tumor, the surgical scope should be expanded to at least 1~1.5cm beyond the tumor boundary, and the effect is not as good as benign tumors, with the risk of metastasis and recurrence. If the patient has a jaw tumor, he must seek medical treatment early, under the guidance of the doctor, and have regular follow-up after surgery to prevent recurrence. At the same time, it is also necessary to maintain a good habit of life, avoiding tobacco, alcohol and stimulating food.
