OK now remember none of us are Oral Cancer docs, just battle tested. You have been to your normal front line dentist and he/she say's it's normal; you have been to an ENT THREE times and he/she says it's normal. They both are schooled, trained and licensed to practice in their respective fields. Even if you had not gone to an ENT that would have been our recommendation. So if I were you I would stop worrying.
