Mucosal Fibroma:
- A soft bump which appears on the inside of the lips and mouth
- Is not cancerous and never develops into a skin cancer
- May be pink, or flesh-coloured
- Is not due to diet or sun damage
- May be due to irritation from teeth, dentures and oral appliances
- Is not a wart or due to the HPV virus
- Is not contagious
- May get gradually larger with time and does not disappear spontaneously
- May sometimes be confused with a skin cancer
- If you have a lesion in your mouth be sure to have your doctor check it

[av_toggle title=’Treatment:’ tags=”]
- Removal with a simple, small, surgical procedure produces the best result
- The skin adjacent to the mucosal fibroma is injected with a local anesthetic to numb the area
- The lesion is removed and the base treated with electrocautery so that it does not bleed
- Stitches are not necessary
- The removal is not painful
- No bandages are required
- After the procedure you may bathe normally
- You may eat and drink normally after the procedure
- There is no need to apply an antibiotic ointment to the area that was treated
- After a mucosal fibroma has been removed, a crust or scab will form
- The crust will heal and leave a pink mark that will gradually fade
- After the removal, there may be a residual white mark
- There is a small chance that the mucosal fibroma could grow back
- There is no cream at this time that will remove mucosal fibromas and there is no way to prevent them from developing
- Treatment of mucosal fibromas is not covered by OHIP or private health insurance
- A referral from a doctor is necessary to make your first appointment
