Since there were no correct answers, I guess I can tell you what it is.
I had a the last tooth on my top right pulled about a month ago (because it was MUCH cheaper than a root canal) Apparently, when a tooth is pulled, the area around it will shrink or tighten up. Sometimes this happens near a bone. If you look closely , there's a small yellow area in the middle of the white circle. That's a piece of bone starting to push it's way thru.
And, the best part about it was that he had to file it down - talk about an uncomfortable feeling!
