Basic surgery of the mouth has been described. Surgery of the anterior one third to one half of the mouth is relatively easy to perform. The patient's medical history, an understanding of the anatomy and histopathology of the oral mucosa, and special instrumentation and techniques are essential to performing oral surgery.
