I have a small black dot on the inside mid section of my cheek.  I was at the dentist 1 week ago and they did not say anything.  They have been doing a few crowns on a couple teeth.  First on one side, then on this side where I now see the spot.  Its very easy to notice and maybe just came.. My jaw also has been clicking a lot and hurts on the one side when i move try to move it right to left.  It pops when i try to extend my lower jaw and move my front bottom teeth outward.  I figured cause of the temp crowns and chewing on one side for several weeks made my muscles unbalanced and might need a split like they use in tmj treatement..  What should I do?  What can this little black dot be?  Please help
Hi, Thanks for posting the query, This could be a melanin pigmentation, or trauma from cheek biting, I would suggest you to get it checked if there is any high points in the preparation and get it reduced also take an OPG radiograph of the region, also take multivitamin supplements daily, maintain a good oral hygiene, Hope you find this as helpful,Take care!
