A member asked:
What are some common, persistent (4 months), small, benign bumps on the roof of the mouth? i've been evaluated by a dentist and an oral surgeon
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bumps: Small, painless, "benign" bumps on the roof of the mouth usually are of no concern. What did the dentist and oral surgeon say? Did they recommend a biopsy? If not then these lesions are probably of no concern.
