Mouth Cancer
Hi, I’ve just found a lump in my gum, the part that joins my upper and lower jaw! My teeth have been sore on that side for a while, like almost a year on and off since I had a filling done. But they’ve started to get sore again, it’s not causing a lot of pain, it’s like a dull ache and I’m sure my cheek is slightly swollen, my partner said he thinks it might be too. The lump I found is moveable, not hard but not entirely soft. I’m freaking out really bad right now!

Call the dentist in the morning and get it checked out.

Re: Lump in mouth
My dentist isn’t seeing anyone only emergencies. I’m not sure if this counts as one, it’s not painful more annoying and woke up today pretty certain my cheek isn’t swollen. I’m trying to stay rational and tell myself it’s probably swollen and not a “lump” as I grind my teeth a lot! My mind just goes straight to the worse case!

Re: Lump in mouth
Call your dentist, he will decide if it's an emergency or not.
