Crunchy foods ?: This happens to everyone occasionally when you are eating hard, crunchy foods and scrape the roof of your mouth. Make sure you eat soft foods for a few days to let this area heal, and if it continues, go see your GP and possibly a dentist or oral surgeon, it may be an infection that needs more attention
