See DDS first: Go to see your dentist and have a clinical examination, if the dentist feels it is warranted, you may be referred to an oral surgeon for further evaluation.

See a Dentist: Any lump inside your mouth that last longer than 2-3 weeks should be checked by a dentist or an oral pathologist.
