Palatal and mandibular tori require no treatment
unless they become so large they interfere
with function, denture placement, or suffer from
recurring traumatic surface ulceration. When
treatment is elected, the lesions may be surgically
removed.
Slowly enlarging, recurrent lesions occasionally
are seen, but there is no malignant transformation
potential. A patient should be evaluated for
Gardner syndrome if they present multiple bony
growths or lesions not in the classic torus or
locations. Intestinal polyposis and cutaneous
cysts or fibromas are other common features of
this autosomal dominant syndrome.
