Oral Pathology in Mesa, AZ

Staying on top of your oral health means more than just checking for cavities or gum disease. During routine exams, we also look for unusual changes in the tissues of your mouth because early detection is one of the best ways to protect your overall health.

At Woolf Dental, we examine your gums, tongue, cheeks, and other soft tissues for signs of abnormalities, including lumps, sores that don’t heal, or changes in color or texture. While most of these changes turn out to be minor, we take every concern seriously and will refer you to a trusted specialist if further evaluation or treatment is needed.

We may recommend a follow-up or specialist referral if you notice:

  • A sore or ulcer that hasn’t healed after two weeks
  • Unexplained swelling, thickening, or lumps in the mouth or jaw
  • Red or white patches that don’t go away
  • Numbness or pain without a clear cause

Our team is here to guide you through any concerns with care and clarity—because when it comes to your health, early attention makes all the difference.

Contact our Mesa, AZ dental office if you’ve noticed any unusual changes or are due for a routine screening.
