Can Retainers Cause Sores And Bumps In The Mouth?
Can retainers cause sores and bumps to the roof of your mouth? I've recently begun wearing my retainer again, and I now have a sore from where the retainer was putting pressure on my mouth. I also have a few tiny painless bumps in the surrounding area.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you are wearing retainer nw0ow you have bumps and soreness in mouth dont worry it can be due to retainer causing irritation in mouth or due to nutritional deficiency also
You consult your dentist and go for oral examination if your retainer habe sharp edges then go for trimming of retainer.
You can take one capsule vitamin B complex twice daily .
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
