I went to get my teeth clean today and when they did the x ray it shows that i have a lump on the back of my bottom tooth, the doctor touched the back of my bottom tooth and she could feel it. What does this mean? She send me to see an oral surgean , I am worry.
This could be in relation to the infected tooth, any beningn lesion. A thorough clinical and radiological examination is required. What are the other symptoms associated with it? I would suggest you to get the examination done by a Oral Surgeon and take an OPG radiograph to determine the cause and plan the treatment.
Take care!
