A member asked:
I have mucoceles on the top of my mouth. it looks like white colored swelling. i am 46 years old housewife. is it dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: Unusual place for a mucocele, let alone multiple lesions.Wo made the diagnosis, your Dentist or a Google search? If they are annoying you, see your Dentist, a specialist Oral Surgeon, or a specialist Oral Medicine practitioner. If not mucoceles, correct diagnosis required for proper treatment. Mujcoceles are not dangerous.

I have had what I think is a mucocele on my lower lip for years now. It's also quite large. No one seems to know who I should see to have it removed. My oral surgeon would not. I would like to get rid of it, as I have difficulty speaking sometimes?
