Welcome to the Mouth Ulcers Shop

The best toothpaste money can buy, guaranteed, or your money back.

Squigle Enamel Saver uses a unique super-mild detergent instead of using irritating sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or cocamidopropyl betaine (CPB), that are used in other toothpastes (so mild in-fact that it is also used to make artificial tears).

It is made with 36% by weight of natural Xylitol, that is many times more xylitol than any other toothpaste. Xylitol has a powerful antibacterial action, particularly inhibiting the growth of Strep Mutans, the main bacteria responsible for cavities and other oral complaints. Xylitol boosts the effect of fluoride by reducing plaque and plaque acids.

It has no harsh abrasives, no irritating tartar control agents and no bleaches.

Squigle Enamel Saver is clinically proven to help sufferers of:

• Mouth ulcers (canker sores, recurrent aphthous stomatitis)
• Bad breath (simple halitosis)
• Gum disease (periodontal disease)
• Bleeding gums, gingivitis
• Oral Lichen Planus
• Mouth ulcers caused by cancer treatments (oral mucositis)
• Perioral dermatitis
• Plaque, tartar, cavities
• Surface stain

It tastes great too, and now comes with a 100% guarantee of satisfaction or your money back

Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

This product crops up frequently on the Mouth Ulcers Home Page message board. Its' inventor, Dr Edward Cutler, was one of the first to champion the anti-SLS cause. He has freely provided much useful information and advice. In my opinion this toothpaste is the best, it has really helped to get my own mouth ulcers under control. A lot of customers are buying this toothpaste as a treatment for perioral dermatitis. I think everyone should use this toothpaste, even if they don't think they have anything wrong with their mouth!

Hypoallergenic toothpaste to prevent sensitive teeth, fluoride free.

Tooth Builder uses calcite nano-particles to seal off the open tubules in your teeth, eliminating the primary cause of tooth sensitivity.

Tooth Builder has a patented super-mild detergent, instead of using sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), cocamidopropyl betaine (CPB) or irritating detergents found in other toothpastes. Tooth Builder's detergent is so mild it is used in artificial tears.

Tooth Builder has no harsh abrasives, no irritating tartar control agents and no bleaches.

Conventional tooth sensitivity toothpastes contain potassium nitrate, which works as a local anaesthetic, calming sensitive tooth nerves. This kind of treatment is not as effective as stopping tooth sensitivity by eliminating the cause - by sealing the open dentinal tubules, the way Tooth Builder does.

Tooth Builder has a massive 36% natural Xylitol - far more than any other toothpaste. Xylitol has a powerful antibacterial action, particularly inhibiting the growth of Strep Mutans, the main bacteria responsible for cavities and other oral complaints. Xylitol reduces plaque, plaque acids and tartar.

Tooth Builder® Toothpaste fights or prevents:

• Tooth Sensitivity
• Mouth ulcers (canker sores, recurrent aphthous stomatitis)
• Plaque, tartar, cavities
• Bad breath (simple halitosis)
• Gum disease (periodontal disease)
• Perioral dermatitis
• Chapped Lips
• Surface stain

Ingredients: 36% natural Xylitol, purified water, calcite, glycerin, poloxamer, cellulose gum, Methocel®, calcium propionate, lactoferrin.

Tooth Builder is the first hypoallergenic toothpaste. It is mint free (no added flavour), and can be used by homeopaths, and by those with chemical sensitivities.

Squigle's Enamel Saver toothpaste has been talked about a lot on the Mouth Ulcers Home Page message board. It's inventor, Dr Edward Cutler, was one of the first to champion the anti-SLS cause. This latest offering from Squigle heals sensitive teeth with nano-particles, it is fluoride-free, and has 36% Xylitol and the same ultra-mild detergent. Tooth Builder has no added flavourings, so although the Xylitol makes it somewhat sweet in the mouth, it doesn't really have any flavour, which makes it nice to use after eating - and doesn't ruin your taste perception if you use it before a meal either.

Natural xylitol chewing gum, tastes great and protects your mouth.

XyliGum xylitol chewing gum is produced in Belgium by V-tality, this naturally healthy gum is now available in the UK.

Other brands make the claim "sweetened with 100% xylitol", which means the only sweetener used is xylitol - although it only makes up 15% by weight of the product - well... XyliGum is also sweetened with 100% xylitol... but, unlike the others XyliGum contains a massive 70% by weight of xylitol!

• Promotes good oral health
• Protects against caries
• Fresh breath
• Refreshing flavours
• Suitable for diabetics
• Less than 2 calories

XyliGum is sweetened with 100% xylitol so there's no sugar, no aspartame and no sorbitol.

The current flavours are SPEARMINT, PEPPERMINT, FRUIT and ACEROLA.
(Let me know your preference in the comments box on the prder page).

CONTAINS NO fat, animal products, fermentable sugars, coloring, flavoring, salt, preservatives, or products of corn, wheat, rice, grain, gluten, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, milk or yeast. No genetically modified ingredients.

XyliGum contains about as much xylitol as it is possible to get into chewing gum. I have started to stock this due to popular demand, I am not really much of a chewing gum user myself, but, this has a good flavour and is nice and refreshing to use. I think it makes a good addition to the range of specialist xylitol products.

First oral health probiotic with Lactobacillus reuteri.

A balanced oral environment is essential for healthy teeth and gums, just as it is for overall wellbeing. Your mouth contains approximately 700 types of bacteria (oral microflora) that in normal conditions are well balanced and work together as a natural defense system for the mouth. Stress, illness, poor diets or inadequate oral hygiene can disrupt this protective oral balance and allow mouth ulcers to thrive as well as causing poor gum health, plaque buildup and other oral complaints.

GUM PerioBalance is a daily dental probiotic designed specifically to rebalance the oral environment.

30 mildly minty lozenges provide a months supply.

GUM PerioBalance is clinically shown to reduce plaque and promote healthy teeth and gums and is made with Prodentis™, a unique blend of naturally-occurring probiotics. In clinical research, positive changes in gum health, as well as overall oral health, were seen during the first 28 days of use. When making GUM PerioBalance a part of your daily oral care routine, combined with regular brushing, flossing and dental visits, GUM PerioBalance delivers a high level of protection.

• Reduces the inflammation caused by gingivitis
• Stabilises periodontitis (gum disease)
• Reduce cariogenic (cavity) activity.

It binds to the lining of the lining of the mouth producing a more beneficial oral eco system as well as producing inhibitors to the growth of 'bad' bacteria, thus preventing or limiting the undesirable effects of pathogens and stimulating the immune system. Where the natural healthy bioflora of the mouth has been altered, a probiotic will seek to rectify any imbalance produced by restoring the healthy microflora balance.

CONTAINS: At least 200 million live Lactobacillus reuteri Prodentis, no sugar. Inactive ingredients; isomalt, hydrogenated palm oil, hydrogenated cotton seed oil, peppermint aroma, menthol flavour, peppermint oil, sucralose.

Probiotics such as Acidophilus, Yakult, Actimel and natural yoghurt have been mentioned frequently on the message board. I used to sell Acidophilus but you can by it anywhere now. I personally think probiotics are excellent for maintaining good digestive health - this PerioBalance is very interesting though... it is the first one specifically designed to work actually inside the mouth, and all the way down.

Emergency Treatment for Mouth Ulcers.

This generic version of Epien's Debacterol, from Galpharm, is the same as Bonjela Once, Oralmedic and Boots Mouth Ulcer Treatment. They are all manufactured by Epien and sold under license. This one contains three treatments though, rather than just two, and also comes in sensible packaging!

This is a one hit treatment. One application eliminates the mouth ulcer pain, and after a day or so all sign of it is gone.

Each pack contains three treatments, consisting of three normal cotton buds and three medicated ones.

Simply snap one end of a medicated stick to allow the treatment to permeate the cotton bud, dry the ulcer with the normal cotton bud, then apply the treatment. As well as pain relief within seconds the treatment seals the infected area, so promoting natural healing.

How does it actually work?

Galpharm Mouth Ulcer Treatment contains Epien's HYBENX™ technology. HYBENX formulations are selective in removing damaged oral mucosal tissues from the ulcer site after application.

The treatment reacts within seconds with the damaged tissue to create a seal or barrier over the site, thus facilitating the healing process and preventing further infection. It extracts water from damaged tissues and creates a seal. This protects the site, preventing contamination and aids the healing process.

It was six years ago now when I was first talking to Reg Dupre about Debacterol, now at last, it is here. This stuff does work. How effective it is, is directly related to how well you apply it, practice the movements first so you get it right first time (I mean it, this is important). You need to get the ulcer dry and then coated, and you do not want to get it all over the rest of your mouth either. Once you hit the spot it will smart like the Holy Mother of smarting things, but not for very long, thereafter rinse your mouth and if you did it right no more pain and the ulcer will be gone in a couple of days. I think you would want to strike early, by the time an ulcer has become a gargantuan crater with a ravine at the bottom poking about with a dry cotton bud may be too much, let alone the treatment!

Bio-active B12 right where you need it.

Avamin Melts® are an all-natural daily prevention against mouth ulcers. In clinical studies with subjects who were experiencing an ordinary mouth ulcers at least once a month, 77% of subjects developed fewer sores, had less pain and experienced faster healing.

Clinical studies have shown that, for some people, hyper levels of vitamin B12 results in a lower incidence of painful canker sores. Vitamin B12, as it appears in most supplements, takes the form of cyanocobalamin and must first be processed by the liver before becoming usable by human cells. Avamin Melts include a bioactive form of B12, the same state B12 takes after being processed in the human liver. This makes it instantly usable by the lining cells of the mouth to achieve hyper levels of B12 exactly where it's needed: your mouth.

CONTAINS NO preservatives, colouring, products of nuts, corn, wheat, rice, grain, gluten, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, milk or yeast.

Warning: Not recommended for children under 6 due to the risk of choking.

B-12 is often mentioned in connection with mouth ulcers, and here is a preparation that delivers it right to where it is needed. I think these are an excellent source of B12.

Time release glycyrrhiza extract to releave pain and promote healing.

Cankermelts-GX is a new development in mouth ulcer treatment. Each pack contains 18 self-adhering disks that deliver liquorice extract (glycyrrhiza) right on to an ulcer for 2 to 6 hours as they dissolve.

Place a dry disk on or near a mouth ulcer with your tongue or finger. It begins adhering by itself and is firmly in place after a few minutes. So long as the ulcer is not located in an area that directly involves eating or speaking, the mild flavoured disk will not interfere with chewing, talking or the taste of food.

Hyaluronan controls inflammation and promotes healing.

Gengigel contains hyaluronan (a natural substance found in the connective tissues of the body). It controls inflammation and stimulates the production of new healthy tissue. To protect tooth enamel the pH is 6.5

Gengigel has no contraindications and is safe to use in pregnancy, with diabetes and is suitable for young children.

Gengigel can be used in the treatment of:

• Mouth ulcers
• Gingivitis
• Periodontitis
• Receding Gums
• Care after oral surgery
• Oral lichen planus

Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

In trials at the University of Rostock in Germany, scientists found it can boost tissue healing by up to a half, increase blood supply and reduce inflammation. Hyaluronan, the active agent in Gengigel, has been used for years by doctors to boost regrowth of connective tissue throughout the body.

Applying hyaluronan as a mouth rinse or gel strengthens cell walls and gets cells to stick together. The tissue grows back faster, while being able to resist re-infection.

The Gel is quite viscous and quite easy to apply to specific areas of ulceration or trauma.  The Mouth Rinse is supplied with a measuring cup and is ideal for broad application or reaching those hard to get at places.

Gengigel is mentioned often on the message board - indeed Richard Thomas (MD of Oraldent, the manufacturer) offered free samples to visitors of the site a while back. Gengigel consistently performs well in clinical trials. Personally I have found it excellent for preventing ulceration to any cuts or abrasions in the mouth.

A patch to releive pain and promote healing.

Just one patch is enough to heal most mouth ulcers.
Covers and Protects the Sore for 8 - 12 Hours.

• Immediate Pain Relief
• Sticks to any mouth ulcer and becomes
   a clear gel patch
• Stays on comfortably for 8 to 12 hours,
   then dissolves
• Protects the sore - stops pain from food, drink
   and irritants.
• Doesn't come off while eating
• Freshens breath

Canker Cover is small tablet-like patch made from edible ingredients. It sticks to the mouth ulcer within seconds and lasts for up to 8 hours.

Shortly after it is placed on the mouth ulcer, the patch becomes gel-like. It absorbs fluids from the ulcer as part of the healing process. The patch will stick to the affected area and cover the ulcer for 6 - 8 hours.

Then it dissolves by itself. In most cases, a single patch will eliminate the mouth ulcer completely, according to a recent study.

Canker Cover works in three ways:

1. The natural ingredients in Canker Cover speed healing. Most mouth ulcers are eliminated with a single patch.

2. Canker Cover "seals" and isolates the mouth ulcer from contact with the tongue, teeth, and food. No other products protect so thoroughly for eight hours.

3. Canker Cover provides immediate and long lasting pain relief by steadily releasing pain-numbing menthol, beta-carotene and other natural ingredients onto the mouth ulcer.

Warnings: Not suitable for children under 5 years of age. Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, or taking prescription drugs.

Guaranteed free from: sugar, glucose, lactose and preservatives. Less than 1 calorie.

I have been asked for this product a lot, it has menthol for pain relief and xylitol among other ingredients to help healing. The physical barrier reduces pain and limits further physical damage and bacterial ingress.

L-Lysine tablets to help boost your immune system.

Lysine is an essential amino acid and is a basic building block of all protein. This nutrient was first isolated in 1889 from casein. It is believed to help maintain a healthy nitrogen balance and also play a role in the absorption of calcium.

Vegan and strict vegetarian diets, using grains as their only source of protein can be deficient in this nutrient (Good natural sources of lysine are cheese, eggs, lime beans, potatoes, milk, meat and brewer's yeast).

L-Lysine can help prevention and healing of:

I too, will not leave home without it! Particularly effective if viral activity is causing or exacerbating your ulcers. The Super Lysine from Quantum has Lysine plus 6 extra supplements that could have been lifted straight from the treatments survey!

I found these brushes in the Oral-B specialist section. I don't know if they are available in the high street. They have plastic bobbles to stimulate the gums. I'm not quite sure how one can use the word "pro" in referenece to a toothbrush but, they are good tooth brushes nevertheless. They also now sport a tongue cleaner on the reverse side of the head, and I sell them for the same price as the ones without the bobbles.
