See doc or dentist: This could be something benign but it is best to have a doctor or dentist look at it to make sure.

See dentist: See your dentist to be sure, if the dentist feels the area is problematic, you will be referred to an oral surgeon. Most likely, at age 18, it may be a burn, from pizza or hot soup. See dentist to alleviate any concerns.

See a dentist: Some conditions may require further assessment, tests and your dentist may book a follow-up appointment or refer you to a specialist to determine a diagnosis. Take care.
