hi Thanks for The Question

As you mentioned you are 63 years old and all your teeth are fine...... but still you are having ulcers frequently in oral cavity and your dentist suggested you to go for extraction which you dont want.....

At this age usually teeth gets attrited and develops sharp edges which are the common reason for ulcers so instead of extraction just tell your dentist to reduce those sharp edges or reshape your teeth..
it will help

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

I would like to ask you what is the site and size of the lesion, is it painful.
Canker sores occurs due to physical or chemical trauma.
If there is presence of any sharp cusp causing irritation it could be trimmed by the Dentist.
Start with the course of multivitamin suplements.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash gargles.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.

Hope you find this as helpful,

Regards.
