What are the causes of mouth ulcers and what is the best way to get rid of them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why ulcers there: Depends on where it exactly is and what it looks like. Mouth ulcers can be a matter of simple using an rx Peridex (chlorhexidine gluconate) soak, or it can be more serious even up to a cancer. This needs to be evaluated by a dentist for what it is and what is the best to do.

Hello, doc I have had a strange oval shaped white mark in mouth and it can get painful at times. After further research I learnt it was what some referred to as a 'mouth ulcer'. Is there any way I can get rid of it as it has been there for two weeks ?
