HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this could be lymph node and may not be due to the infection because the given history of your is not indicative of any infection even your dental condition is also not related with this, right now you have a only option to wait for some time if this bmp increase in size or become tender then this need to be seen clinically, otherwise no need to worry about this, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
