Using patches as a form of treatment for canker sores, has certain advantages over other options for dealing with these painful oral sores. The following patches (or discs) have been proven to alleviate the problems associated with canker sores.
All natural CankerMelts® by Orahealth are discs that dissolve in the mouth, without numbing. Licorice root extract and collagen are slowly released precisely to the afflicted area over 2-6 hours, to soothe and reduce inflammation. CankerMelts relieves canker sore pain fast and heals them in 1-5 days.
Canker Cover™ oral patch by Quantum Inc. protects the sore and provides immediate pain relief which can last up to 12 hours. Eating, drinking and talking is made easy due to the menthol component that numbs the affected area. Canker Cover contains natural ingredients which speed up the healing process.
Canker sore patches for treating mouth ulcers are convenient, especially for those busy individuals who prefer to just cover and protect the sore, to let it heal itself.
