The scientific name for a tori is "torus mandibularis" if it is on the lower jaw, or "torus palatinus" if it is on the roof of the mouth.
Torus palatinus (Boney growth on the roof of the mouth) can make it difficult or impossible to properly fit a denture. An upper denture is designed to create a mild suction on the roof of the mouth in order to hold it in place. A torus can interfere with this function. The good news is that a torus can be easily removed by an oral surgeon. Once the surgical site has healed, the impressions for the upper denture can be taken and the denture can be properly fitted.
Tori is the plural of the word Torus. A torus is an outgrowth of bone commonly found in the mouth. A single torus is frequently found on the roof of the mouth at the midline (torus palatinus). Tori can also be found on each side of the lower jaw next to the tongue (torus mandibularis)in some individuals.Tori are usually anomalous (harmless variations). Occasionally, tori need to be removed by a surgeon because they interfere with the proper fit of a denture or other dental appliance.To see examples of large tori, click on the RELATED LINK below.
