What Are Mouth Ulcers?
Mouth ulcers are small, painful sores that appear on the inner cheeks, gums, tongue, lips, or the roof of your mouth.
They are usually harmless and self-healing within one to two weeks, but for many people, they can cause significant irritation and discomfort while eating or speaking.
At Smylift Dental, we go beyond quick fixes – we identify the underlying cause, treat the pain effectively, and help prevent recurrences with long-term care and oral health guidance.
Common Causes of Mouth Ulcers
While sometimes they appear without warning, mouth ulcers are often linked to one or more of the following:
Our specialists perform a detailed evaluation to pinpoint the root cause and create a personalized healing plan tailored for you.
Types of Mouth Ulcers We Treat
Canker Sores (Aphthous Ulcers)

Oral Lichen Planus
White, lace-like sores often seen in adults. Requires medical management and lifestyle guidance.
Leukoplakia & Erythroplakia
White or red patches caused by irritation or tobacco use. Our specialists assess these carefully for any precancerous signs.
