Have two small bumps near my paritally erupted upper canine tooth. the bumps are slightly hard and arent visible unless felt. had dental check up and bitewing x-rays but dentist didn't mention the bumps. should i get reexamined?

The identity of "bumps" can only be identified via examination. Rule of thumb is that any leasing present for more than 14 days should be examined

May be just the bone transformation due to the eruption but please have it looked at again if not going away as the tooth continues to erupt
