Oral cancer?

[anxiouspeach]

Recently I noticed a bump on the roof of my mouth and upon further investigation I found more, smaller bumps along my throat and soft palate, along with these yellow spots on my mouth as well. Is this just from poor oral hygiene and smoking, or am I screwed and have oral cancer? Small bump circled in red, small white bumps circled in yellow, yellow patches circled in green. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow to have this all checked but I have a LOT of anxiety and I'm honestly panicking a bit here.

The red bump looks like it might be a small bony exostosis. Nothing to worry about.
The green and yellow bumps, might just be papillae or minor salivary glands. You can still have it checked out, but based on the photo, I don't think this is oral cancer.

I never responded to you because of well, the anxiety, but I wanted to let you know I did see the dentist the next day and she agreed with you, likely torus palatinus and the other bumps were my papillae and minor salivary glands! They're just more raised due to the smoking and something I hadn't mentioned previously in my post, a lifelong chronic post nasal drip and excess mucus issue! Thank you so much for your help and your response!!
