Oral4

• To check the oral mucosa, the patient's cheek is exposed with a tongue depressor and the tissues inspected with a penlight. (wikipedia.org)
• The oral cavity includes the lips (vermillion and labial mucosa), buccal mucosa, floor of the mouth, tongue, hard and soft palate, gingivae, retromolar trigone and teeth. (medscape.com)
• Surgical excision with the submission of the tissue for histopathologic examination is the treatment of choice for persistent oral mucoceles and ranulas. (medscape.com)
• [ 38 ] Although there is minimal evidence to support the use of intralesional steroids for the management of oral mucoceles, this treatment option may be an alternative when surgery cannot be performed. (medscape.com)

• Assessment of the ventral (bottom) surface of the tongue is done by having the patient touch the tip of their tongue against the roof of their mouth. (wikipedia.org)
• To assess the tonsils, a patient opens their mouth and a tongue blade is used to depress the tongue. (wikipedia.org)
• The lingual frenum is the primary soft tissue attachment of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. (medscape.com)
