[|Human|] I am worried since my tongue is developing kind of a bald spot on the tip of my tongue. At first I thought it was due to my retainer rubbing it raw since I have a turner dial in my retainer right where the spot started. However I have not worn my retainer for a couple of weeks and the spot is getting bigger. What is happening?

I would advise you consult your doctor and start with multivitamin. If you take alcohol, spicy food avoid this. The doctor will prescribe you a topical gel containing prednisone which will help in the healing. Consult the dentist before reusing the retainer. Maintain a good oral hygiene with proper brushing and flossing. Keep your oral cavity HY
