Dentist in Aurora CO http://www.summerbrookdental.com (303) 693-1215 Dentist in Aurora CO clinic with dentists performing general family dentistry and cosmetic dentistry with tooth whitening and invisalign. Hi. I'm Dr. Jim Craig, the dentist in Aurora CO locals trust and I'm here to talk about a problem that millions of Americans suffer with, which is canker sores. If you're one of those people who gets these painful sores in your mouth, I can imagine that you probably want to know what causes them and how to treat them. Unfortunately, there's bad news here. We don't know, even despite all of our research, what causes canker sores exactly. There's a lot of speculation out there, but we just don't have a clear understanding with the research that's available. The best thing you can do is manage a canker sore using Anbesol or Orajel. These are over-the-counter numbing agents or pain killers. Then, at your next appointment with us, we can talk about a chemical that we can get through a pharmacy that can sometimes alleviate canker sore pain much faster. Unfortunately, it's just a matter or riding it out. If you have questions about frequent mouth sores or problems that you might be experiencing, we do offer free exams and consultations at our Aurora CO dentist office. I look forward to visiting with you at your next appointment. As the dentist in Aurora CO locals trust, we'd be happy to visit with you more about canker sores or any of your general dentistry questions.
