What Is A Red Mark On The Roof Of My Mouth?

Hi I was at the dentist on Monday for my 3 month hygiene and the dentist saw a red mark on th roof of my mouth. It is smooth and not painful, however I can feel it. She is thinking it is a burn or trauma and has asked me to come. Back in 2 weeks. I am terrified that it is something worse. I vaguely remember thinking the hot chocolate I drank was hot, but not anything serious as a burn. My dentist has said she really thinks it is trauma, but I am freaked out. I also was brushing my tongue pretty hard and gaged a few times with my tooth brush in my mouth that morning. Does this sound like trauma.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have red mark on roof dont worry yes it can be trauma or burn you do is
Apply ointment Mucopain or Tess bucal paste on red mark on roof of mouth three - four times a day ,

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

You can take one capsule vitamin B complex once daily for 5 days

If you wont get relief then go to dentist and go for oral examination and if necessary go for biopsy

Hope this will help you.

Wishing you good health.
