Treatment of mouth ulcers varies depending upon the cause of the ulcer. Have the ulcer examined by a dentist and get the appropriate treatment.
The best way to treat mouth ulcers early is with Valtrex 500mg, one tablet two times daily for three days. This treatment should be started as soon as the burning feeling starts. If the ulcer is already present, treat it with a topical numbing agent and it will be gone in 10 to 14 days.

The best treatment is topical steroids or a prescription mouthrinse called dexamethasone elixir. These can both be prescribed by your dental professional.
