HEALED MOUTH ULCERS USING MOUTH RINSE
My husband
suddenly started having sores show up in his mouth and they would stay there. It interfered with his eating, taste,
comfort and effectively eliminated kissing for us. We saw our regular internal medicine MD and ENT specialists.
He was free from herpes or any other identifiable illness. Ultimately, we were told that this sometimes happens, that
there is no cure, and that he would just have to learn to live with it.
The only medication that they prescribed that helped was a topical steroid gel that he would have to apply in his mouth
to the sores. This was certainly disgusting and he hated it, but it did help to minimize the ulcers. When he complained
about having to use this continuously due to concerns over the long-term effects, he was advised to use it until the ulcers
went away and then stop; then use it again when they returned...and so on. He did this for several months.
One day, I was at Walmart. A new mouthwash caught my attention because it had a note on the bottle that said it "helps
heal canker sores and cold sores". He started using it (stopped the steroid gel). It has kept him free from these
ulcers for 2 years now. Here are the details of the mouth rinse: Prevention Everyday Mouth Rinse

Peroxide Formula, Helps Heal Canker Sores and Cold Sores. Manufactured in Raleigh, IL by Prevention Labs 1-800-473-1205 www.preventionmouthrinse.come-mail: prevntn@shawneelink.comAddedum: I broke a molar recently and before I could get to the store for a patch (to tide me over the weekend until I
could see my dentist), an ulcer developed on the side of my tongue from the sharp edge of my tooth. When I got home,
I took a q-tip and soaked it in the Prevention and held it to the ulcer. That night, I used the mouth rinse before bed.
By the next day the ulcer was tons better and gone by the following day. It is great stuff! Submitted 2/06
