Stop Canker Sores
If you've ever had canker sores, you know that they are misery-making. Changing your toothpaste may make a difference.
Studies show that people who use toothpastes that do not contain the additives SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) or CAPB (cocoamidopropyl betaine) are less likely to develop canker sores. Most tooothpastes contain these ingredients, so read the label to find one that doesn't.
Canker sores, small ulcers inside of the mouth, are different from cold sores. Whereas cold sores are sores generally found outside of the mouth and are contagious, canker sores develop inside the mouth and are not contagious.
