what kind of doctor should I see to have a growth removed from my tongue?

Answer 1

You need to see an oral surgeon

Answer 2

It depends on if you have insurance or not and if you have to have a referral if you do have insurance. An ENT (ears, nose and throat) doctor would be the doctor to see but you may have to start with your family practice doctor to get a referral for this. This may be something that does not need to be removed. The ENT or family practice doctor will decide this. If you still want to have it removed regardless of what the doctor says you will probably have to pay for this out-of-pocket.

Answer 3

I just called my family dentist and he said just what Debbk above me said. My dentist would first refer you to an oral surgeon for evaluation and treatment, and that doctor would, in turn, refer you to an ENT if the problem was extensive. If the growth was cancerous, follow-up would be provided by your family/personal physician.

Answer 4

Ear Nose and Throat doctor

Answer 5

Oral surgeon, general surgeon or an ENT (ear, nose, throat) doc. Get referral from dentist or family doctor.
