It was very good on your part that as soon as you noticed the swelling on the roof ie called as palate in the mouth you went to the dentist. But as the dentist has told you that it is a trigeminal neuralgia I doubt on it, as in this disease patient experience a very severe, sharp and lancinating pain that lasts for few seconds only and no type of knot is present in it. The knot which is present on the roof it might be an infectious swelling that has been arised from the caries or any gum problem in the tooth, consult a good dentist and go for root canal treatment that is RCT in the tooth it might get relieved.
