This is possibly decay and should be examined by your dentist at your earliest convenience. The bump will get larger, as the decay will spread to more areas of this tooth. If not taken care of promptly, it will begin to cause you pain and the treatment will become more extensive.

This could be an abscess, and infection in the gum, but it could be something else. It's best to get it checked out by your dentist. Keep brushing and flossing.
