Fabulous that you are going to the dentist tomorrow. No-one on the internet can definitively tell you what it is (although your pics came up after I wrote the first draft of this! Looks benign to me ...); but the dentist is absolutely the right person to look, and will either be able to reassure you right away, or will be able to refer you to a specialist if needed. My dad had oral cancer and I have pre-cancerous things on my lip; have talked a lot to my dentist about the role of dentistry and how getting regular check ups is part of general oral health and not just teeth. Hand hold for your 24 hour wait. x

Thankyou for reply. Do you think it looks benign? Thankyou best wishes to you

Just checking in -- did the dentist manage to reassure you?
