Dentist 's  Response
Hi

Aphthous ulcers occur due to stress and vitamin deficiency. You can use Dologel/Mucopain ointment 4-5 times a day 10 mins before having food. The initial stage of developing an aphthous ulcer is a red spot with tingling sensation. Application of ointment at that stage itself prevents it from developing into ulcer.Do take vitamin supplements.

Hi there,

LEXANOX is the latest treatment for oral ulcers.

Along with all the steps suggested by all the above Drs try using this too.
Attention to general health,reducing habits(smoking/pan etc) if any & plenty of fluid intake is also beneficial.

Thanks & Take care

Hi, there is only symptomatic treatment for oral ulcers. Oral ulcers recur due to stress, vitamin deficiency, sharp teeth or restorations etc. Please take multivitamin supplements for prevention. when ulcers do occur, apply Mucopain and Hexigel ointments alternatively 3-4 times a day for 5-7 days. Avoid spicy food and go for a complete oral check up to see if you have any sharp teeth or restorations. Take care!
