Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, fleshy growwth inside mouth can be traumatic fibroma or painless swelling .

Consult dentist for visual examination and investigations .

If it is Fibroma then go for Excision and if it is swelling in gums then go for Oral prophylaxis .

Hope this will help you.
