Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
There can be many reasons for this soreness of the roof of the mouth
-First it can be possible that it is an allergic reaction to some chemical or solution
-Second it can be possible that there is an infected tooth in the upper arch which is causing this abscess on the roof
But to diagnose it you have go for an x-ray for which you have to visit a dentist and get complete examination done.
Till then you can start with topical ointment as mucopain.
Hope it will help you.
