Why Does Everything Get Stuck On The Roof Of Her My Mouth?
something in the roof of my mouth
i noticed earlier that i have a piece of food or something lodged in the roof of my mouth its not very painful but i can feel it when i run my tounge across. i dont know if this is an emergency or if it can hold off for at least 16 hours. so can should i seek medical attention asap or can i wait this out? i really have no clue.
