Food possibly: There is no known cause of canker sores. Many reports out there think trauma, food allergies especially acid foods. If this happens again try and remember what you have eaten and write them down. Pineapple and citrus fruits such as lemons, limes and grapefruit seem to be a cause. Hope you feel better :)

Canker sores: We simply don't know. May be viruses living along nerve trunks that become activated. Can be triggered by stress, foods, allergies, trauma, or prolonged dental procedures, among the many trigger possibilities. Your Dentst can help you with symptom management, so please make an appointment.
