Hi,

welcome to HCM forum,

Presence of ulcer can be due to trauma from it or allergy due to the use of material or there could be presence of infection.

I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical examination done take an x-ray of the region.
Allpy DOLOGEL oral ointment topically over the affected area.
At home take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Start with the course of multivitamin suplements.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.
Take complete balanced diet and drink plenty of water.

Hope you find this as helpful,

Regards.
