Went to a dentist and was told this is Mandibular Tori however she wasn't 100% confident

[Anon123]

Have gone to a dentist recently to get an opinion on a lump behind my bottom teeth. Dentist said it may be mandibular tori however she wasn't 100% sure. Due to the high cost in my country I am not in a position to get more xrays/opinions and was wondering if anyone here could help. Just looking for some peace of mind on this issue or if I need to seek further assistance. Growth is quite small still and is only present on one side which I know is less common for tori growth. Thanks in advance!

Do you have any x-rays at all? Is the growth hard? Is it painful? Although it is less common, you still sometimes get unilateral tori.

Haven’t got the X-rays sent to me however they were only front/side so there was a bit of obstruction. No pain and quite hard am unable to press into it at all. Slight discomfort during the initial growth stage.

Mandibular tori are classified as hamartomas which means that they have limited growth potential.
Best advice-observe only for now. If the area becomes symptomatic, continues to enlarge, or becomes ulcerated, you would need to seek the opinion of an oral surgeon.
