Should a Doctor Treat Bumps on the Roof of the Mouth?
Small bumps or lumps on the roof of the mouth are usually caused by a common dental condition or trauma. However, not all bumps are harmless and there are times when a doctor should be consulted rather than a dentist. The lumps can indicate a medical rather than a dental condition if:
– There is pain chewing or swallowing
– The lump grows quickly
– The lump has not disappeared in two weeks
If false teeth or “other dental devices no longer fit properly” it could also signify a medical problem and a list of other indications can be found in the article at https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/323063.php
