Hello
There is a possibility that your teeth are not in a proper position due to which you accidentally bite while eating or while speaking that takes the form of an ulcer.
So first of all you have to keep a watch on how frequently does it occur because if the frequency is more then you need to get consultation from a braces specialist or orthodontist and probably get alignment of your teeth done because the ulcers can lead to bigger problems.
For the transient relief of pain or discomfort due to the ulcers you can use an ointment such as dologel CT for local application
Next Steps
Kindly visit your dentist and get a proper check up done

If this is happening accidentally and rarely, you need not do anything to stop this. In case this is happening frequently, it can be due to abnormal teeth position. Get it checked from a dentist, if this is happening regularly.
Usually these ulcers are painful, but will go away by themselves.
Next Steps
Apply Dologel 3 times a day, 5 minutes before taking food. Then wash your mouth and consume food. This will help you to have your food comfortably.
Apply a gel by name Rexidine twice daily for faster healing.
Health Tips
Do not drink or eat anything for 1 hour after applying Rexidine gel.
