A gum biopsy is a medical procedure in which a doctor removes a sample of tissue from your gums. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. A gum biopsy is also called a gingival biopsy because gingiva is another word for gums. The gingival tissue is the tissue that immediately surrounds and supports your teeth. Doctors use a gum biopsy to diagnose causes of abnormal gum tissue. These causes can include oral cancer and noncancerous growths or lesions.
Incisional biopsy is used to sample a thick, keratotic region at the anterior aspect of the tongue. Infiltration of local anesthetic (b) is followed by tracing of an ellipse (c and d). The anterior edge of the ellipse is gently raised with tissue forceps, which allows detachment of a canoe-shaped sample (e and f).
