What Does Tiny Black Spot On Bottom Gum Indicate?
I just had a tooth pulled last week, upper. It was added onto my upper partial. Now I noticed I have a tiny black spot on my bottom gum. Never had it before. Is it because of my dental work recently or could it be a form of oral cancer? I do have a history of skin cancer. Thanks, Diane

Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
This black spot which is present on the bottom gum can be because of this upper partial denture traumatizing the lower gum.
Better that once you should visit your dentist again and get your partial denture corrected.
Hope it will help you.
