[|AI|]  Hello there.... When tooth has a cavity and is quite deep enough it usually results in a cystic lesion.....we don't call it a tumor....tumor is something that occurs because of excessive proliferation of any tissue....which part of the oral cavity does he have the swelling?if it is a swelling arising from the decayed tooth it could either be sort of infection or an enlarged articular cyst...if it is not associated with the carious tooth it could be other tumors as well....tumors can be benign or malignant...a tissue needs to be taken from the site (biopsy) to confirm the kind of lesion... Don't worries its curable....he requires radiographs as well... Consult an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon for further clinical evaluation and management.
