What Are The Bumps On The Roof And Gums Of A Teething Child?

My daughter is just a little over 6months old and she has just started teething. I noticed that on the roof of her mouth, there are some bumps that hug just outside of the gum line that as far as I can see, goes all the way around. Is it possible for her teeth to come in up there? If so, what should we do?
