What is this small soft bubble or bump on my gums?

i have a bubble or bump on my front gums right above one of my teeth. its soft and sometimes hurts. does any one know what this might be or how to cure it. i do not have insurance and dont really wanna pay hundreds of dollars to find out from a dentist.

What is this small soft bubble or bump on my gums?
Sometimes that's a Fistula. A small pocket of infection from the root. The puss trying to get out. Sometimes just a gum. What is concerning is,its soft.Meaning its got a contents. Usually puss from an infection.


Look in the mail,local paper or phone book, many Dental offices offer free exams and x-rays for new patients.Just say your looking for a dentist and have the exam,that should give you the opportunity to ask about the bump.


Please go get an exam so you can prevent the bump from becoming a problem or have no cause for concern.





FYI just because you have no insurance don't ignore dental maintenance. Cleaning twice a year runs about 90.00 each usually includes yearly exam.


Please go see a Dentist for a diagnosis.
