Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome
I have gone through your query.
Kindly if possible upload the picture for better assessment.
I would suggest her to avoid food that irritates her mouth, like spicy food. Avoid citric and acidic food like lemon, oranges, tomato'. You can ask her to apply dentogel, which will be beneficial. Few times sharp tooth surfaces might also trigger mouth ulcers, you need to see your dentist for the same.
Along with the above mentioned measures you can take you can Capsule BECOSULES.

This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
