Many Possibilities: Ranging from completely benign to worrisome. Get it evaluated by a dentist asap and be prepared for a possible re-evaluation later.

Only if seen: Unfortunately, not without actually seeing it personally. Where are they, how many, what size and for how long? It could be normal, temporary or a sign of some problem. You should see a dentist who can give you the answer to your question.
