Mouth Ulcers and Oral Pain

Pain in your mouth can make eating and drinking really irritating, ruining your meal times and leaving you feeling annoyed and frustrated. Mouth pain can be caused by a number of reasons, including mouth ulcers, toothache, and even poorly fitted dentures or braces. If your child is teething they can suffer through a lot of pain as their new teeth cut through, causing tears, tantrums, and sleepless nights for the both of you. If you’re struggling with mouth pain, no matter what the cause, we’ve got something that can help you get back to normal.

What are mouth ulcers?

Mouth ulcers are small sores that appear inside your mouth, usually on your lips, tongue, or the inside of your cheeks. They’re harmless and will clear up by themselves within a couple of weeks, but they can cause pain and irritation that will leave you searching for a way to get rid of them fast. Although mouth ulcers need time to heal, there are products you can use to ease your pain until the sore has cleared up. A number of pain relief sprays and gels are available over the counter in the UK from top brands like Bonjela and Iglu. They can be applied directly to your mouth ulcer, soothing the area so you can eat and drink in peace.
