Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, in addition, associated minor salivary gland should be excised to avoid recurrence. Seeing an experienced oral surgeon is advised.

Mucocele is not life threatening , but spontaneous remission is highly unlikely.seeing a right surgeon will fix your problem permanently.
