Hi Dear,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic Team.
Understanding your concern. As per your query ulcers on gums on regular basis area Recurrent Aphthous Ulcers which mainly occurs due to stress and due to decreased immune system of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to use eucalyptus essential oil as that has antimicrobial, astringent properties. Apply Dologel cream on your oral mucosa at least three times a day. Use coconut oil, honey , and clove oil dipped on cotton and apply for 10-15 minutes. Warm saline gargles on daily basis to clean oral cavity. Eat yogurt in diet. Avoid acidic food in diet as that will cause delayed healing. Use aloe vera gel on these sores and it act as antiseptic agent. Do flossing one time a day and use antimicrobial mouthwash. Use multivitamins rich in vitamin B12. Visit dentist once if symptoms keep son persisting and get complete examination done.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
