Hi all,

My 9 year old son has had a white ulcer type formation on the lower jaw gum, on the side of the gum where the tooth is.

This has been there for 10 weeks now.

Went to dentist and completed xray and no issues or infection. Dentist advised the tooth that’s visible above where the white mark is, is a baby tooth and the 2nd tooth is right beneath it ready to come through.

Went to doctors they are not sure what it could be either. In the 10 weeks we have applied bonjela, salt rinses but nothing is resolving this issue

It’s irritating him non stop and having to pushe his finger against his cheek into it to try and ease the irritation from it.

Seems to have a hole in the middle of it.

Any ideas?

Thank you
