I woke up about a week ago and found a small bubble on my gum after I brushed my teeth. I could push on it with my finger. It was soft. It deflated kind of over a week and now its just a soft gum patch but it swells sometimes. It doesn't hurt at all. I'm thirteen and I have braces. I think it might be a cyst? Are those common on the gum? Thankyou. Serious answers only please.

yes its common i had one of them in my mouth and it was really irratating and yea they move around under ur gums too so i say just leave it alone mine lasted like a week and a half but just try not to touch it much it will go away on its own i think it has to do with bacteria in the mouth just see ur doctor and if it doesnt go away it might just be a mouth ulcer

i think more likely is swollen wound. the best advice is to check with your doctor rather than worrying unnecessary.
