What To Do For The Lump Behind The Front Teeth?
My father who is 79 has been having a metallic taste in his mouth for several months. Now behind his front teeth that have old metal fillings he has a lump. Yesterday his whole body was in pain and he mentally lost control and ended up in the hospital. They did all kinds of test and found nothing, but he is convinced this all has to do with whats going on in his mouth. appreciate any suggestions you might have. Diane

Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Considering the age of your father, I would suggest you to get him reviewed by a maxillofacial surgeon as it is not advisable and possible to opine on the lesion and condition of your father over the net without a clinical examination. Thanks and take care.
