Hello, Welcom to practo Traumatic recurrent ulcers are because of the sharp tooth edge. If it is traumatic do the enameloplasty for the same it will disappear of its own. If it is two years old and non healing please repeat the biopsy. Recurrent non healing ulcers can be dangerous too. Please provide your feedback Regards Dr Muzaffar
