I am excessively licking the floor of my mouth i compared the part close to my teeth to my parent s and brother and mine are too thin what should i do?

Stop habit: Why are you licking your mouth? You should know that there is much variability in the shape of the mouth, teeth and gums so just because your mouth looks different this is not necessarily a bad thing. You can talk to your dentist if you are concerned. And stop this licking habit. Focus on something else.
