i need a little advice please:

lately, the roof of my mouth has sore spots when i've eaten 'hard food'. for instance, eating a lumberjack sandwich where the french crusty bread hit the roof of my mouth when biting.

then a sore spot develops on the roof of my mouth for a few days that is sore & tender.

i try to bite a little diff or chew to avoid hitting the tender spots. but this never used to happen.

is this another shitty getting old thing? is there any way to speed up healing?

@singlemaltgirl That happens to me, too. Sounds like it's ok if it resolves on its own. Mention to DDS at your next appt -- or if you have been seeing same one for long term, phone office & ask for advice. Skin does thin after menopause; I am always wounding myself and now it shows visibly -- bruises, arms, legs... ugh 💜
