Brush Biopsy technique
|
- Moisten brush with water
- Flat or cylindrical edge of brush placed against surface of lesion - Apply firm pressure against surface of lesion and rotate 5-10 times - Pink tissue or microbleeding indicates adequate depth penetration - Spread material immediately onglass slide - Saturate cellular material with fixative agent - Let dry for 15-20min and ship slide |

|
Osteoradionecrosis
|
Wait 21 days after extractions to begin radiotherapy
- Less likely to need maxillary exos since blood supply is greater |
|
Golden window
