    My DH used to get canker sores a lot. He doesn't have dry mouth or thyroid issues. We discovered that eating lots of green veggies makes the canker sores heal faster, and prevents future ones from starting. This is such an easy, healthy thing to try it would be worth it to give it a shot.

    Not a preventative but I've found when I get them, if I am extra vigilant about flossing--esp. soon after one begins--they go away much faster.

    Also, the last time I had one I used a chloroseptic (sore throat spray) and this helped with the pain and I think sped up the healing too.

    Hugs to you.
