Yes: Crohn's disease can cause mouth sores similar to canker sores (aphthous ulcers). Crohn's disease can affect the digestive tract, anywhere from the mouth to the anus.

Yes, this is common: It is common for a person suffering from Crohn's disease to experience mouth sores. Monitor the affect of acidic foods such as citrus fruits because this seems to cause flare ups.
