Evaluation: You didn't tell us if you smoke, chew tobacco, or have an ill fitting denture, all of which can produces lesions. No response to antibiotic probably means it's not an infection. Important that you see a General Dentist or an Oral Surgeon immediately for evaluation. Biopsy may be indicated to help make diagnosis.
