How to heal a mouth cut?!
Question: How to heal a mouth cut.?
Well, for some reason I keep getting cuts in my mouth. I think its because I probably grind my teeth while I'm asleep. Whenever I smile, yawn or chew it hurts like hell. Not to mention I just got spacers on the top and bottom of my teeth, so my mouth hurts a lot right now. The cut is between my bottom back gums and my cheek. Do you guys know of any ways to make it heal fast.? I can make salt water and I also have glyoxide (I've heard it helps) and mouthwash. Please just tell me what will help and how fast it heals. Thanks!Health Question & Answer

Salt water rinsing helps to prevent infection. Salt water rinse 2-5 times daily.
as long as you keep it clean, it will heal. make sure you are brushing and flossing regularly as this will prevent infection also.
it takes ten days for a cut in the mouth to heal, so just be patient.Health Question & Answer

interesting. I don't usually see "mouth cuts" in patients with bruxism (grinding of teeth). From braces, yes, but not from grinding.
the mouth heals faster than most places in the body, if not the fastest.
Nothing you can but to keep a clean mouth. Brush and floss and to help with the cuts, gentle salt water rinses. The cuts should heal in a couple of days.
don't forget your dental wax for wires that keep cutting you.
