thanks for your query, the ulcer could be because of the trauma caused by the teeth resulting in cheek bite. or if the ulcers are multiple it could be aphthous ulcers. nothing to worry. if i am your treating doctor i would have started treating with a topical anesthetic and anlagesics or topical steroids(if it is aphthous ulcer). i hope my answer will help you. take care.
