I got struck off my dentist for not goin after so long, but since ive had my new dentist about 2 1/2 years ive had nothing but trouble, Ulcers/Abcesses you name it. Am waiting to go under a general anastheatic to have 4 removed but just recently, in the last 1/12 (Month) ive noticed a large lump on my bottom right gum, and just thinking the worst really, occaisonally hurts but could this be cancer?

Hello Ceri

It is not possible to make a diagnosis over the Internet. Since you have some bad teeth awaiting removal, it is very possible that you have a swelling from a chronic infection. Please see your dentist for a proper diagnosis and management.
