Overview
- In some cases, switching toothpastes can prevent mouth ulcers from occurring with research looking at the role of sodium dodecyl sulfate (sometimes called sodium lauryl sulfate, or simply SLS), a detergent found in most toothpastes. Using toothpaste free of this compound has been found in several studies to help reduce the amount, size and recurrence of ulcers.[2][3][4]
- Dental braces are a common physical trauma that can lead to mouth ulcers and can be treated with wax to reduce abrasion of themucosa. Avoidance of other types of physical and chemical trauma will prevent some ulcers, but since such trauma is usually accidental, this type of prevention is not usually practical.
- Take caution when brushing or flossing teeth, and be extra careful when using a toothpick.
Nutritional therapy
- Zinc deficiency has been reported in people with recurrent mouth ulcers.[5]The few small studies looking into the role of zinc supplementation have mostly reported positive results particularly for those people with deficiency,[6][7]although some research has found no therapeutic effect.[8]
