Could be..: A boney growth called a torus. If that is what it is, it is nothing to be concerned about. Keep your appointment with the dentist to make sure.

Don't panic: Most likely this is a palatal torus as suggested by the other doctors here and is harmless. Regardless of what it is, you have your appointment with a dentist in a week, nothing will happen with this type of area in that short period of time.
