Treating a painful mouth ulcer
Oralmedic works by cauterising the surface of the ulcer and forming a protective barrier, which can relieve pain quickly and help it heal. It's applied precisely to the ulcer with the applicator provided — you may feel a brief sensation as it works. It's designed for adults and older children; check the pack for age suitability. Most mouth ulcers clear on their own within a week or two.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Oralmedic work?
It's applied directly to the ulcer, forming a protective layer that relieves pain and helps the ulcer heal. Follow the application instructions carefully.
Is it suitable for children?
Check the pack for the minimum age. It's not suitable for young children — ask your pharmacist if unsure.
When should I see a doctor or dentist?
See your dentist or GP if a mouth ulcer lasts longer than three weeks, is unusually large or painful, or keeps returning.
