Oral Pathology is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis and study of diseases affecting the mouth, jaws, and related structures. It involves examining tissues and cells to identify conditions such as infections, tumors, and developmental abnormalities. Oral pathologists often work closely with dentists and other healthcare professionals to provide accurate diagnoses. The field encompasses a variety of conditions, including oral cancer, canker sores, and gum disease. By understanding these diseases, oral pathologists help in developing effective treatment plans and improving patient outcomes. Their expertise is crucial for maintaining overall oral health and preventing serious complications.
