What Causes Bumps At The Back Of Throat?

Hi, I have had bumps way back in my mouth almost near my throat. I have had been to the orthodontist and had braces and an expander. Could they of caused the bumps? I have been to a nurse practitioner and she told me to ask my orthodontist. What do you think?
