Triamcinolone: A topical triamcinolone paste plus a check to make sure the retainer is the best possible fit may help. If ongoing issues you will need to be seen by a doctor or dentist for examination

Where: is the ulcer? How large is it? Do you have pain? Have you had them before? We need more details before we can help.

Small ulcers: They have to be seen to be diagnosed. So see your Dentist. May be bacterial or viral, or may be irritation from the retainer. See the Denist or specialist Orthodontist who made it to check its fit.
