Tongue ulcers: In general, most ulcers on the tongue, commonly known as aphthous ulcers or canker sores, will heal spontaneously in several days. If they persist beyond a week, are chronic, or are very painful, you should have them treated by your dentist. If they are causing problems eating you can get orabase ointment and apply to the ulcer before meals.
