Dog Facial Swelling or Oral Mass (Advanced Diagnostics & Surgery)

What Causes Sudden Facial Swelling or Mouth Tumors in Dogs?

A sudden bulge beneath your dog's eye, a swollen jaw, or a lump inside their mouth points to a tooth root abscess, a deep oral cyst, or an oral mass. Because much of a pet's jaw structure is hidden from the naked eye, general exams often miss the root cause. Utilizing high-resolution Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D imaging, our veterinary oral surgeons accurately diagnose hidden bone lesions and perform precise oncologic or reconstructive oral surgeries to give your dog the best possible outcome.
