Hello ma'am, On palpation whether it's hard or soft? If they are hard then these are bony tori which are bony overgrowths. If they are hindering your daily activities or function then you have to get it removed surgically. For confirmation whether they are tori or not proper clinical evaluation is necessary. So visit the clinic.

Hello, if the lump is hard, it can be a bony overgrowth. If its since years without pain and no increase in size there is no need to worry about.

Hi, the solid lump on the roof of your mouth sounds like a palatal torus, a harmless bony growth that many people have. Since it has been there for years and hasn't caused major issues, it usually doesn't require treatment unless it becomes painful or interferes with daily functions. However, I recommend visiting your nearest dental clinic to get it properly examined and confirmed.

If it's hard and bony....it is normal and is called as palatial tori...though most tori are quite large it is quite common to have small tori aka bony outgrowths.....these usually do not increase in size drastically overtime. If u find these bumps soft to touch or way too enlarging over time...u surely need to visit nearby dentist Thank you😊

Hello If they are there since years, then it shouldn’t cause any issue as they’re not increasing in size or becoming painful But it’s always advisable to get it checked physically by visiting the clinic
