A polyp is a non malignant growth. People get them in different places in the body and you're right it's nothing serious. If you wear dentures and it bothers you, by all means have it removed...it's a relatively simple procedure done in the office.

You should have it removed if it is interfering with your dentures. You need to have a good fit or you will end up with sores in your mouth from them rocking back and forth. This could also damage your dentures.

Yes I have and had it removed by my doctor. It has never re-appeared.
