I have a white hard bump on the bottom of my gum line. It has been there for almost a year. The size has not really grown much. I am starting to get another one right beside it. I went to my dentist who said that its fine and he did do a bit wing xray and said he didn t see anything that showed it to be abnormal. I am just a worry wart and wanted to know what you thought this hard bump could be on my gum. Thanks
HelloWelcome to ChatDoctorI would like to tell you that there can be various reasons for this painless growth like it can be fibrous i.e. painless growth firm in consistency due to some injury or trauma. It can be torus i.e. bony outgrowth. It can also be an abscessed tooth that will be ruled out after getting an IOP AR done because bite wing X-Ray is for interdental caries. Get it diagnosed properly & treated after consulting your dentist. Take Disregards Chat Doctor.
