These are traumatic ulcers and may be caused either due to sharp edges of teeth,or habit of lip biting
If it’s sharp edges visit ur dentist and get it corrected and if it’s due to lip biting then discontinue that

It's traumatic ulcer. Sharp edges of teeth has to be smoothened. Apply anesthetic gel to relieve pain. You can consult through this for prescription of medication.

If it is because of sharp tooth margins, then you may require rounding of sharp edges/margins.
Do visit a local dentist for treatment and physical evaluation.
