A mucocele, commonly known as a lip or mouth bump, is a small, fluid-filled swelling that can appear inside the lips, under the tongue, or along the inner cheeks. It often develops when a salivary gland becomes blocked or injured, causing mucus to collect beneath the surface.
While these bumps are usually harmless, they can become bothersome or make it uncomfortable to speak or eat if left untreated. Persistent or recurring mucoceles benefit from professional evaluation and treatment.
At Dentistry on the Path, we use the Fotona laser to gently and precisely remove mucoceles. The laser vaporizes the bump without the need for traditional cutting or stitches, helping to protect surrounding tissue.
This modern approach offers a quicker, more comfortable healing experience with minimal discomfort and downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities the same day.
The Fotona laser offers clear advantages over conventional surgical removal, making the experience easier and more predictable for patients.
Reduced bleeding and swelling compared to conventional surgery — no scalpels, no stitches.
Most patients heal quickly and can return to normal activities the same day as treatment.
