Cheek biting
When I bite my inner cheek i still have remains of the bitten area. Is there a way to remove them? I have a bad habit and I want to fix it.

The only way to fix it is by controlling your behaviour. And trust me, the remains that you are talking about is a common and an absolutely normal finding. It is known as the LINEA ALBA. U can look it up on Google. So practically you have nothin to be worried about mate..
