white mark on underside of tongue

white mark on underside of tongue

I have a white mark 5mmx3 mm approx and nearly flat on the underside of my tongue.
I did not know it was there until my dentist noticed it and he did not know what it is.
Does it have a name and is it anything to worry about.?
Your advice will be appreciated.

Any history of smoking, tobacco use, excessive alcohol use?  It might be a good idea to get it biopsied or checked out by a specialist.

It could be something simple like a white spongy nevus.
