Hello,
what does a swelling/lump, painless except when touched, at the back of the upper jaw mean?
It appeared a little over a month ago and I would say it is gradually increasing. It is approximately 1.5 cm in size.
Kind regards, Franc

Dear Sir/Madam!

The causes of the formation can be different, but with the greatest probability we can say that it is an inflammatory process, most likely caused by a diseased tooth or periodontal tissue. With an X-ray and a clinical examination we can determine whether this is a periapical process above a non-vital dead tooth, a retained root, or inflamed tissue around a partially erupted wisdom tooth...

Have a nice day!
