Brief Answer:
Hello. You should visit a head n neck surgeon

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. A careful examination before a knife is required for diagnose it properly. I would advice you to visit a head n neck surgeon. He will advise whether to go with biopsy first or a CT scan for the diagnosis. Dentist have little role to play.
