Oral Pathology


Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons are uniquely trained to diagnose and manage all oral pathology. As a licensed physician as well as oral surgeon, Dr. Loveless is equipped to treat most intraoral diseases. Common pathology include:

  • Jaw Cysts
  • Jaw Tumors
  • Oral Cancer
  • Leukoplakia
  • Osteonecrosis
  • Vesiculobullous disease: Pemphigus and Pemphigoid
  • Lichen Planus
  • TMJ Pathology
  • Infections
  • Mucoceles

In regards to oral pathology, the mouth is often associated with systemic illness as well and can often be an early warning system for other disease.  An oral cancer screening should be done at your dentist’s office every six months as well as a monthly screening at home.

Oral Disease Symptoms

My father had gone for a root canal the night before and a root fracture was discovered so the tooth could not be saved. We called the next morning to set up an oral surgery appointment and Dr. Loveless was able to accommodate him the same day. The staff explained everything in great detail regarding finances and post operative instructions. Dr. Loveless also discovered another area of concern and removed an additional tooth. This was extremely helpful since my dad is on blood thinners and we really wanted to avoid having to make two trips. Very clean office as well. Will recommend everyone we know to the practice.
