I wore an old retainer to bed for a few days, the wire created an open sore on the roof Id my mouth that hurt like a cancer sore and took forever to go away and now its a round white hole in my hard palate, feels like bone, or a tootChatDoctoring in, but doesnt hurt. What is it and how do I get rid of it?
Hi! Gone through your query. The white area on the hard palate you are referring to can be a fibrous due to irritation from retainer wire. Visit your dentist for an excisional biopsy and removal of the irritant. Recurrence is possible if the offending irritant persists. Hope this helps.
