Mouth ulcers are sores that appear in the mouth, often on the inside of the cheeks. Mouth ulcers, also known as aphthous ulcers, can be painful when eating, drinking or brushing teeth.
Occasional mouth ulcers are usually harmless and clear up on their own. Seek medical advice if they last longer than 3 weeks or keep coming back.
Mouth ulcers cannot be caught from someone else. Up to 1 in 5 people get recurrent mouth ulcers. Exact cause of most mouth ulcers is unknown. Stress or tissue injury is thought to be the cause of simple mouth ulcers. Pain from a mouth ulcer generally lessens in a few days and the sores usually heal without treatment in about a week or two.
If sores are large, painful or persistent, your dentist may prescribe an antimicrobial mouth rinse, a corticosteroid ointment, or a prescription or non-prescription solution to reduce the pain and irritation. Although there is no cure for mouth ulcers and they often reoccur, you may be able to reduce their frequency with good dental hygiene and by:
?Avoiding foods that irritate your mouth, including acidic or spicy foods
?Avoiding irritation from gum chewing
?Brushing with a soft-bristled brush after meals and flossing daily, which will keep your mouth free of foods that might trigger a sore.
?Life style modification to reduce stress.
Seek medical advice about mouth ulcers if you have:
?Unusually large sores
?Sores that are spreading
?Sores that last three weeks or longer
?Intolerable pain despite avoiding trigger foods and taking over-the-counter pain medication
?Difficulty drinking enough fluids.

Hi lybrate-user, a mouth ulcers is a painful sore inside the mouth, on the tongue, soft palate (the back portion of the roof of your mouth), or inside the cheeks.
Sores in your mouth are round, white, or grey in color, with a red edge or border. The condition is usually becomes okay withing 7 days. But if it persists beyond that, or if multiple ulcers keep re-appearing, medical advice must be taken.
In severe mouth ulcer attacks, you may also experience fever and physical sluggishness.
Taking vitamin b12 supplements along with a suitable gel for pain is the best remedy.
