• I have two cysts in my upper jaw. Please suggest the treatment.

I have been detected with two cysts in my upper jaw lining. Although it is not painful, it certainly is quite uncomfortable. Can you please suggest an appropriate treatment for these.

Excisional Biopsy and/or extraction of the causative tooth if it’s odontogenic.

Yes. I recommend evaluation by an oral surgeon. Many times they are associated with teeth that need to be removed. In most cases, removing the tooth and cyst is definitive. But it's best to treat them before they grow too much. And if a biopsy is recommended, a definitive diagnosis can be made to rule out anything too serious.
