My teeth were great up until about 4 years ago, then they started going all to hell, and crumbling while I watch. Probably gonna be what kills me in the end.
The only "nodules" I've had so far are salivary stones - kinda like kidney stones, but in the salivary ducts. if they block one good enough, it causes one or the other of the salivary glands to swell and hurt, kinda like mumps. I treat them with rum - lots and lots of rum. The rum sterilizes everything, and eventually relaxes stuff enough that the stones just kinda pop out of the duct and unblock it... but that ain't medical advice I'd recommend. Works for me, but I wouldn't expect it to work for everyone.
It gets a little harrowing right towards the end of the treatment.
I've also had an abscess for about 3 months which seems to be going away now... and that is a wee bit scary. Where the hell is it going TO?
I can't advise Ancient Light either and I know what you're (Ninurta) are going through, I too occasionally get those bastard abscesses and
I look like I'm sucking a gobstopper!!
