mouth ulcers

[Luna]

anyone got any tips on getting rid of these??

I havent had on in years, since i had braces, but ive woke up this morning with a massive one on the inside of my lip. Keeps rubbing against my teeth which isnt helping.

Bonjela dosnt work on me for some reason. So does anyone else know anything i can use??

The only thing I've found helps over the years is plain old salt water gargling and swilling morning and evening....it kills the bacteria. Bonjela does nothing for me either....

i always put salt straight on ulcers when i get them, it does hurt but seems to get rid of them!!!

thanks was trying to avoid doing that lol

[*vcl*]

When i get them, i get loads especially when im stressed !!! I use boots own make teething gel ( for babies ) its the best thing I have found to stop them hurting! This was also really good when i had my braces years ago. Ive always since then made sure i have a tube of the stuff at home. If you can handle the pain but just want to get rid of them, then im with willow just put salt straight onto them.

you could try a bit of anbesol, you can get it from boots, but salt is cheaper, and you don't have to go out and buy it!!!!
