I’ve had this patch on the roof of my mouth for over two months now. It gets bigger some days and smaller others.

My dentist suggested it’s injury but it’s been like this for months now.

Any clues what this may be? I’m seeing my dentist again on the 16th.

Are you perhaps a mouth breather?
It might be a fungal infection.
I would suggest also trying to rinse with an antifungal mouth rinse.

Hey man I see your post from 2019 about palace redness. Did that end up being notning serious. Thanks.
Heyy no i am still waiting for answers its been 6 years. I have a oral surgeon appointment next month to see what they say. Its still there but interesting fact i have been doing chlorhexidine mouthwash which has helped slightly and lesion is not as bad. Dont know if that a coincidence or does it mean its fungal? Would be interesting to get in put. But then its been 6 years untreated a fungal issue would have got alot worse in that time im assuming. Truth is we dont know. I have just been told its a torus and to leave it but my gut is telling me to get more specialist opinion rather then a dentist. So lets see wish me luck 🙏.
