Use Canker Cover: Painful mouth sores are usually canker sores (aphthous ulcer) which are found on the inside of your cheek, under your tongue, the tip of your tongue, or the roof of your month. They will usually go away in 7 - 10 days. There are many natural remedies, but i like canker cover by quantum health, which is a patch that will cover the sore. If you have a lot of sores you should see your dentist.

It depends...: Mouth sores may arise from a variety of causes. The more common sores are either due to physical injury (a traumatic ulcer), or canker sores (atphous ulcers). These can be treated symptomatically with an over the counter topical anesthetic product. Severe, persistent, or recurrent ulcers may reflect a more serious condition, and should be identified by your dentist or medical doctor.
