That isn't serious . Sharp edges of your teeth needs to be smoothened to avoid such ulcer. Sometimes it's sharp edges or sometimes it's normal edges cutting inside tissue at the same place.

The picture provided shows a lot of pigmentation .
The rough spot could be frictional keratosis due to mucosa rubbing over sharp teeth edges as there is definite evidence of attrition (grinding).
Nevertheless,would advise visiting a dentist and getting clinic evaluation done .
