Actually quite effective!
Bought a bunch of products after having a terrible canker sore outbreak in my mouth, was almost worried and desperate enough to visit a doctor before I found what was wrong and what worked. This product definitely helped me. Here's are my findings, hope it helped someone:My canker sore situation:- Day 1-2: One or two sore poped up, not worrying too much. Under tounge and one near the lip bellow.- Day 3: Tiny sores appears rapidly by the day. Now a few are under my tounge and gums in and outside front of teeth below. Some are inside between top lip and teeth. I'm constantly aware of them. I also used some stuff that either didn't help or make it worse.- Day 4: Small sores started merging into larger one, it hurt too much to sleep.- Day 5: This is when i have a better routine to help. I can sleep better, the pain and sores reduced.- Day 6/now: I'm actually a lot more comfortable, gonna resume to eating regular food soon.Causes (my own of course, you may or may not experience some):- Abrassive toothpaste, with SLS or high level of flouride for a long time (flouride itself is good): After using a toothpaste without flouride without noticing the lable, i started having minor cavities which cause me to brush harder, not knowing it also have SLS. Once I did notice and switched my toothpaste to the one with flouride, my mistake was getting one with too high of a level (over 0.7%), which for me personally, cause a lot of sensitivity, that along with my mouthwash.- Mouthwash contains Alcohol: Because of what happened, I started incorporating mouthwash (Listerine) and swish for longer than 1-2 min each nigh. I started having canker sore then, but thought i didn't clean enough and would do for longer. I think this whole combination really tipped off the microbiome in my mouth so I started having more tiny ones that merge into larger sores.- Using 70% alcohol to disinfect sores: I was stoopid and thought it was supposed to clean open wound. Funny thing is it actually helped the first sore so i thought i was doing something right until I found out I have infact flipped the micobioms life up side down and made things worse quickly. Never do this for internal wounds (mouth)!!- Diet/ Vitamin deficiency (B, B12, Iron, etc): I have a mostly vegetarian diet. I'm transitioning to be vegetarian, so I cut down my meat consumption. A while back I make my own food most meals so I'm in control of what I put in my body, but lately I've been eating in restaurants or order in. Most time, if you sit in a restaurant with friends, you can't choose much other than the veggie options presented. So I resorted to eating pasta or breaddy food or rice. I didn't take vitamin supplements when I started this diet.- Spicy food, coffee, some fruits, nuts: The first day that I got 2 canker sore, I didn't think they will turn for worse and continued eating spicy food, drink coffee. It stung a bit and I didn't take notice until it was really bad. I tried eating banana cause it is soft food, but it hurts more so i guess some fruits won't do it.- Stress: I noticed the combo of all that above with personal mental heal really make the canker sore worse. At one point I was worried about getting cancer cause it got worse fast. Little did I know stress itself make it so unbearable. When i got a good routine I relaxed and things got better.Solutions:- Replaced new toothbrush and mouth wash without SLS and alcohol. I stopped using my mouthwash at the moment until the sores are healed but brushing regularly.- Apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar): Basically you have both good and bad bacteria in your mouth and when the bad one over populate, you need to re introduce good one back in. I used a Q tip dipped in diluted apple vinegar and apply on the sores multiple times a day. Did this in 2 days and has tremendous results, most sores have healed. I also drank diluted apple cider vinegar to help gut health, it also help my oral health.- Salt/baking soda mouth wash: this to replace regular mouthwash while having canker sores, you can search online to make your own. Don't do it too many times per day cause it might increase sensitivity.- B12, Iron, L-Lysine supplements: B12 and Iron is a must for my diet. L-Lysine is just incase cause i didn't know if they were cold sores (but looks like they're not). Take what you lack but don't over take them for no reason.- Improve diet: During this time, if i get food I requested for no salt, sauce, or chillies. I resumed eating meat (until i got enough time to improve my diet) for now. What helped why my sores was worse is eating solf, soupy food. Again, i had perfectly fine vegetarian diet at the beginning, life got in the way so I didn't get all the nutrients i needed, especially while I didn't take replacement vitamins.- Using CANKER-RID: I use it on a Qtip. It stings for a bit, same with apple cider but works! They also sent you some candies which is quite sweet.What didn’t work:- Applying salt directly on the sores and wipe: saw this method on redit and tried while I was desperate. Absolutely horrendous. Hurts like hell and it worked for a bit but the sore came back in an hour. Maybe they used different salt? I advise against this.- Anbesol: work for some but it made me nauseous both time, once i had to throw up. Only to numb, which doesn't do anything to heal I guess. My mouth just numb for the hour, not like in a healing way. If you have multiple sores, likely you will use over the dosage.- Borax: I tried the 30c. I don't know if it did much, nothing worse but nothing better. It's in cute pallets tho.- Milk of Magnesia: i bought this while i was delirious from pain. Maybe I shouldn't buy flavored one, but dabbing, swishing, drinking it don't help. Just make me want to go to the bathroom lol.Gluck. Gg

100% Works
I cannot be without this product in my cabinet. I have suffered from canker sores for over 40 years (oranges, acidic coffee, packaged bread) and this is the only remedy that will stop them. When you feel a canker sore coming on, hit with a few drops and it will stop the sore from weeks of pain - it closes the sore up overnight. If you don't, you can still use the product but it will burn. Either way - excellent product and you'll find relief.

Incredible Find
I typically don't write reviews, but I'm making an exception here, as the quality of this product has compelled me to. Backstory: I get a LOT of mouth ulcers/canker sores, as I have oddly shaped, unusually sharp premolars and am always biting myself when eating. To make matters worse, I have to wear a mouth guard at night for severe grinding, which tends to aggravate the sores until they turn into supersores (the kind that make eating, speaking, and even breathing through the mouth painful). And to make matters EVEN worse, I'm an oboist.I'd previously tried just about every variant of ulcer treatment, from gels like Canker-X to cleansers like Orajel rinse and Glyoxide. At best, these treatments helped the sores heal a little bit more quickly (e.g., Glyoxide). At worst, they seemed to only exacerbate the sores (I'm looking at you, Canker-X). So out of desperation, I tried searching Amazon, as I'd given up on the local drugstores, and found this product. The reviews seemed good, and the product wasn't unreasonably expensive, so I figured I didn't have anything to lose.I didn't have to wait too long after the Canker-Rid had arrived to bite myself again (naturally). I waited things out as long as I could, but eventually, the sore passed the "point of no return" and began to get worse and worse, so I finally decided to try this product out. I put it on one night before I went to bed, and after putting just one drop on the sore, I could tell that this stuff was POWERFUL. Searing pain, tingling, and then no pain. Then, fast forward to the next morning: the developing ulcer had somehow improved enough overnight that I was able to eat breakfast and brush my teeth with virtually no discomfort! From here, I used the product twice a day for just two more days (!), and then the sore was effectively gone. I mean, I could see remnants of it if I looked in my mouth in the mirror, but it had "gotten over the hump" to the extent that I could do all of my normal activities (including oboe playing) without any sort of pain or interference. This was in THREE DAYS.While I don't fully understand how this product works, I will say that I noticed that it will really stain your skin if you get some on your finger (not permanently--just for a day or so). As I tried to rub this stain off the first time, though, I realized that it's more than a mere stain, but actually a really strong protective barrier. I initially couldn't get it off my finger even as I was scrubbing vigorously with soap and water, which might explain how it's such a strong protectant in the mouth. (If the staining makes you nervous, you can apply the medicine with a cotton swab. But it does eventually come off.)In sum, I would purchase this product again in a heartbeat. The icing on the cake is that the seller is wonderful--a well-established honeybee farm that was nice enough to include an extra little gift with my order--maybe because I was a first-time customer? Or they're just nice? Regardless, I'm very impressed and will be returning to this product for many years to come.
