Hard painless lump on jawline that feels like bone. dentist couldn't seem to find it, but it's there. should i request an xray or is it probably fine.

Lump: Have a oral surgeon examine the hard lump. Is there pain? Is it growing? How long has it been there? These are some of the questions the oral surgeon will ask you. Oral surgeons have the training and knowledge to evaluate this for you.
