Depends on the cause: Mouth ulcers can be caused by many different things, including infections and autoimmune diseases. The most common causes are aphthous ulcers and type 1 herpes. You should be evaluated by your doctor and treated appropriately.

Mouth Ulcers: First you need to find out what type of mouth ulcers they are.....After that, you can then find an appropriate therapy. It could be viral, bacterial, autoimmune, etc.... Get a diagnosis, then focus on treatment.

Canker Sores: Can be linked to problems with the body's immune defense system. The sores may occur after a mouth injury due to dental work, aggressive tooth cleaning, or biting the tongue or cheek. They usually heal without any treatment in about two weeks or so. In office treatment we use debacterol, a medication containing 50% sulfonated phenolics and 30% sulfuric acid. They heal in two days.

Canker sore cocktail: Rinse for 10 seconds with an equal mixture of maalox stomach medicine, liquid benadryl, (diphenhydramine) and chloroseptic sore throat medicine. Next place a small amount of salt on your finger and hold it against the sore for ten seconds. Repeat 3-4 times a day. If you are prone to canker sores, your dentist or doctor can prescribe an anti-viral.

Mouth Ulcers: Canker sores (ulcers in your mouth) can be easily treated with over the counter drugs like kankaid that provide pain relief and covering for the sore that aids healing. Gentle and thorough oral care is critical. Ulcers outside of your mouth (caused by herpes virus) can be treated w/otc drugs like abreva. Ulcers that are not healing, raise the concern of oral cancer and need closer examination.

Avoid acids: Stay away from acidic foods and drinks like coffees tea and sodas. Rinse your mouth with maalox or mylanta liquid after eating and before going to bed. Many people with mouth ulcers have saliva which is too acidic. If these measures are not helpful see your doctor as rare conditions can cause ulcers.
