What Caused White Bumps On Lips After Teeth Extraction And Full Dentures?
I recently got all my teeth extracted and full dentures. I know have noticed tiny(pin head sized) white bumps on the right side of my upper and lower lips. They are uncomfortable and that area is tender. what would cause this and should I be concerned?

Hi
Thanks for writing in.
Even after extraction there is affect of anesthesia & it might be due to lip biting.
It can also be to allergy to some drug that you were prescribed after extraction.
You can take multivitamin capsule & apply dologel to that region.
If still problem persists then consult dentist.
