Ask doctor or dentist: There are ointments you can use to help with canker sores, but you first have to discuss this with your PCP/or dentists, will you really know well and who can advise you as to which prescription would be better for you to take right now.

Canker pain: Oragel or hydrogen peroxide topically (apply to cankers), or ibuprofen.
