What Could Be The Small Lump Above Baby Canine Tooth?
I have a small lump above my baby canine tooth. It bleed for 2 seconds when I poked it, but no pain occurred. I also Seem to have a canker sore above the lump on the inside of my lip. Iam very curious and wondering what it is. I do have braces and I brush my teeth regularly. Any advice?

Hi.
It is very obvious that the braces or excessive brushing might have caused this .
Be light on the gums for a few days. Take liquid diet. Give it a chance to heal on its own for a few days, do not poke it again.
If does not resolve within a few days, visit a dentist.
