Hello, i have had a hard, white bump behind my bottom front teeth for a month now. it does not hurt. there is also a very small one on the other side of my bottom teeth.

Bumps: You may have mandibular tori, small benign growths of bone. Next time you see your Dentist for a regular check-up ask him/her to take a look and establish a base line. That way if they continue to enlarge over the years you can be advised if treatment is indicated. For most people no treatment is required.
