then see an ent specialist. this may be a normal torus palate lesion so don't over-stress about it. many pediatric dentists are equally as skilled. get it checked out for your comfort of knowing that this is not likely a cancer.
what kind of doctor should i see to make sure a bump on my 18 month old's pallete is properly diagnosed? . my 18 month old daughter has a hard painless nonirritated pea-sized lump on her pallete just inward from her teeth & gums. i'm not the fearful type. i just want to make sure it's not cancerous that it's not going to cause other oral problems and that it's going to go away. i'd hate for a dentist to misjudge something cancerous or a family care physician to wrongly assure me that it's not affecting oral development etc.
