What Causes Ulceration In Mouth?

Behind my upper two front teeth, it is sore and irritated. It looks like I rubbed off a part of the roof of my mouth. I would call it a small 1 cm ulcer, probably. I was wondering what this is, and if it could just be from the foods I have been eating?

Your description of the 'ulcer' suggests that it could be due to trying to eat hot food like a hot pizza. U need not worry if that is the case, as it would resolve on its own in a few days or u may consult your dentist for symptomatic relief.
