First noticed this appearing just above Yx's tooth 2 days ago. Coincidentally that tooth is the same one she fell and hit a few years ago. The gum bump, as I learnt on Google, didn't cause pain or discomfort but I bought her to the dentist nonetheless.
Dentist said it could be bacterial infection, or because of the adult tooth that is coming out. However, if it was due to the former the bump would be redder; if it was the latter the bump would be just below the tooth. So really can't pinpoint what is was. Doc recommended to extract the tooth which was already wobbly and adult tooth was coming out anyway. But in the end we said we'll monitor the situation, and come back immediately if the bump becomes red, grows in size or causes pain.
Brave yx sat through the check unfazed. She even enjoyed the cleansing and polishing and yearned to come back again soon ...
