- Although trauma is often the acute cause of ulcers, certain ingredients in some toothpastes can make some patients more prone to developing oral ulcers.
- Triclosan and Sodium Laurel Sulfate(SLS) are thought to be contributors to mouth ulcers. If you experience ulcers frequently, you may want to eliminate toothpastes and mouth rinses with these ingredients.
- Sensodyne Pronamel and Jason Power Smile are examples of toothpastes free from these ingredients.
- Eating yogurt, rinsing with coconut oil or warm salt water may aid in speeding up recovery.
