X-ray finding the lesion are in line of a mucocele on gum.dr said it is cyst.its being18 months.cyst looks smaller now it is dangerous?

No: If it is a mucocele they are benign ,in other words not dangerous and good it is getting smaller.Obviously you have seen someone since you had an xray so keep follow up.If you are anxious about it you could get a second opinion or not.If continues to get smaller or stays the same size that is reassuring.
