Is it leukoplakia

I have a small white patch on the inner lip. I noticed it two days ago. This morning, I tried to scrape it off and almost 80% of it got cleared. I have been reading online about it being leukoplakia and how it is a precancerous condition. Worried ! I was a smoker and quit two weeks ago. 27(M)

Implant /Braces

Hi , I had a braces treatment for twice , 1st time I had only for upper jaw without tooth extraction (even with one extra tooth ) at end I had a midline shift so I didn't had retainers . after 1 year I again had a braces treatment for second time with four tooth extraction two from upper 2 from lower but because for one extra tooth I had in upper jaw I was left with one tooth gap which was not predicted properly by doctors so she said she will close that gap by bridge I was not okay with that method so I stopped the treatment and had retainers to maintain the gap to prevent tooth shifting. It was almost 5 years now &I am planning for a permanent best solution I consulted 3-4 doctors some are recommending implants some are recommending braces they are saying I need to correct a bite for that I should have same tooth count in upper and lower jaw else I might get jaw problems in future I am confused because recommend me best and permanent solution. I attached x ray for reference
