Laser: You can find a dentist in your area that has a special laser that can treat the lesion. But you still need to let the area heal from the procedure.

Licorice: Licorice has been used since ancient times to treat canker sores in the mouth -- but still not immediate. Small studies have shown it can be effective when used as a mouthwash -- 50-75% improvement in 1 day. http://tinyurl.com/kr9aeau sucking on dgl lozenges may work also. Other studies showed positive results with a dissolving licorice disk placed on the sore. http://tinyurl.com/mdvde3o.
