i have an oval mass under the right side of my bottom teeth, it reduces and enlarges in size on a weekly basis. it's getting bigger though and when move it with your finger, it moves about an inch or so in either direction. i'd like to know what it is, if it could possibly be dangerous to my health.

Hi

It's really impossible to say what this mass is or isn't, but you really ought to have your dentist or doctor take a look, especially if it's been there a while (your comment "it reduces and enlarges...on a weekly basis" makes me think it has). Is there any pain? Broken or infected teeth? Do you use smokeless tobacco?

Let us know how it turns out.
