   take a q tip and dip it into some hydrogen peroxide and put it on the sore.

   I have 3 options for you.

   1) Hydrogen Peroxide - This usually comes in a brown bottle. It is tasteless, but might smell funny. Dilute it with water and swish and rinse your mouth for a minute or two. Or use a qtip and dab the spot. On the cheaper side of things. Do this 3 times a day for a few days. DO NOT SWALLOW.

   2) Peroxyl by Colgate - It looks like mouthwash. Taste like mouthwash. But it is better than just ordinary mouthwash. Reduces healing time from weeks to days. Cleans out the sore of bacteria, so it can heal faster. A bit on the expensive side, but actually works. Do this 3 times a day for a few days. DO NOT SWALLOW.

   3) Wait it out - You can just wait for them to heal themselves. Really cheap, but you might be in pain for a while.

   if it hurts to eat, put some baby orojel on it while you do…also gargle with salt water every day, but don’t swallow it lol.

   Salt works, but it hurts. It will help the sore to go away sooner.

   Orabase works wonders, but I suggest using it only at night when you go to sleep. I used this when I had braces and it was the only thing that helped to heal the sores caused from braces.
