Surgical removal of a<unk>  Some<unk> s spontaneously resolve on their own after a short time. Others are chronic and require surgical removal. Recurrence is possible, thus the adjacent salivary gland may be excised as a preventive measure. Several types of procedures are available for the surgical removal of<unk> s. These include laser and minimally invasive techniques, which means recovery times are reduced drastically. Micromarsupialization is an alternative procedure to surgical removal. It uses silk sutures in the dome of a cyst to allow new epithelialized drainage pathways. It is simpler, less traumatic, and well tolerated by patients, especially children. A nonsurgical option that may be effective for a small or newly identified<unk>  is to rinse the mouth thoroughly with salt water (one tablespoon of salt per cup) four to six times a day for a few days. This may draw out the fluid trapped underneath the skin without further damaging the surrounding tissue. If the<unk>  persists, individuals should see a doctor to discuss further treatment. Smaller cysts may be removed by laser treatment, but larger cysts may have to be removed surgically.
