Might be....: 1) trauma from biting your cheeks in your sleep. If it is in a straight line along your cheek from the front to the back of your mouth, than this is a good possibility. 2) Chron's Disease- if these areas are popping up all over your mouth, not just in areas you can accidentally bite, than this is a real possibility and you should be evaluated by a Gastroenerologist.

Quite common: The tongue or cheek biting during sleep has been reported as a common symptom in association with night bruxism. The custom night guard can be designed and fabricated by your dentist to prevent jaw closings during sleep, therefore preventing tongue injury.
