From what youâve described, it seems your upper molar has developed sharp edges that are scratching your inner cheek. Your dentist can easily smoothen the rough or jagged enamelâthis is a quick and effective fix to prevent further injury

Hello
There is cheek bite due to wisdom tooth, please visit the dentist for smoothening the tooth for temporary relief and further evaluation about extraction of that tooth because it looks buccally placed

Hi,
Visit a dentist and get a check up done. Sharp teeth margins can be smoothened.
Consciously avoid grinding of teeth. Get a night guard made and wear it at night while sleeping to prevent damage to teeth due to the habit of grinding.

You need to visit a dental clinic for evaluation
Maybe the rough edge needs some rounding off
Maybe an extraction is required
