Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
There are many reasons for gingival enlargement like infection, hormonal changes, pregnancy, even some drug may cause gingival enlargement.
As you mentioned there is submandibular lymph node enlargement it might be infection. I suggest you to take a consultation from an ENT surgeon for further diagnostic management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Indhu Priyadharshini
