When removing a torus on the side of the gum, the adjacent teeth typically do not have to be removed unless there are complications or if the surgery requires access to the underlying bone or tissue. The torus removal is usually localized, and the focus is on the bony growth itself. However, the dentist or oral surgeon will assess the situation and determine the best approach based on the specific case. Always consult with a dental professional for personalized advice.

Does part of the palate in your mouth ever have to be removed for immediate dentures?
Yes, sometimes patients have a bony growth on the palate called a "torus." The torus can interfere with the proper fit of a denture. Fortunately, removal of a torus is a relatively simple surgery that can be performed in the oral surgeon's office.
Can a torus be removed under regional anesthesia?
Yes, a torus, which is a bony growth in the mouth, can typically be removed under regional anesthesia. This type of anesthesia numbs a specific area, allowing the procedure to be performed with minimal discomfort for the patient. The choice of anesthesia may depend on the size and location of the torus, as well as the patient's overall health and anxiety levels. Always consult with a dental or medical professional to determine the best approach for individual cases.
How does a torus palatinus affect dentures?
Torus palatinus (Boney growth on the roof of the mouth) can make it difficult or impossible to properly fit a denture. An upper denture is designed to create a mild suction on the roof of the mouth in order to hold it in place. A torus can interfere with this function. The good news is that a torus can be easily removed by an oral surgeon. Once the surgical site has healed, the impressions for the upper denture can be taken and the denture can be properly fitted.
