Hello
Thanks for consulting hcm
Read your query as your sister had fluid filled bubbles in mouth this can be Mucocele . It is caused due to trauma of minor glands present in oral cavity . Dont be worried so much. For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for examination of oral cavity and confirm the diagnosis .
Hope this will help you .
