This is called 'Leukoplahia". It is usually caused by some kind of irritation in the mouth, such as rough edges from dentures, or smoking tobacco. People who have AIDS can also get it. And in rare cases, it can be a sign of oral cancer. Best thing to do is quit the thing that is causing it, i.e., quit smoking or smooth out rough spots on the dentures.
