Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bony lumps has to be removed, if you want to go for a denture. Because the bony lumps will interfere with path of removal and insertion of the denture. That might result in injury to the tissues. If you are diabetic, get the RBS and HBA1C done, if it is under normal limits get it surgically corrected. Nothing to worry, it is a simple procedure.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
