What are the causes of canker sores and how can i get rid of them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Often stress: Stress, injury/ trauma (scratching the are with coarse or sharp food or utensil) lack of sleep can all bring on canker sores. If infrequent, try colgate orabase to protect the area and reduce pain. If frequent try using toothpaste without sodium lauryl sulfate. See your dentist.
