Zilactin-B Fast Acting Canker Sore Treatment - Long Lasting Protection and Oral Pain Relief of Canker Sores, Mouth Sores and Gum Irritations, Made in USA, 0.25oz Gel, Pack of 1

Idk why all of the sudden after 46 years I'm getting Kanker soars? Extremely painful because it's always at the base of my fn gum/cheek. Anything , esp citrus,Spice cold hot is just devestating.I've tried a few different things, anbesol or whatever it's called had worked the best but just wears off very quickly. I moved fast to hopefully eat something before it wore off.So I wanted to try to find something better. I've definitely found it.This stuff is awesome.So yes, as you may have read when u apply it it burns. A GOOD burn, but I imagine it may be intense for some. I was happy because I knew something was happening. It's not all the others where you hopefully get a lil glob to stay in place long enough to soak in and numb it some.This stuff is thick and adheres to your sore immediately when applied. After it's done you feel what I can only describe as a cotton like cover a 'zapped' sore that has been completely muted.It's there. U can feel that 'it wants to be painful' but it's not.Then came the test.I hadn't ate breakfast today and I wasnt able to take part in tacos last night so I wanted to make some burritos with the left over mix.I had it all in there. Taco seasoned beef, guacamole, cilantro, habenero salsa.As I brought the burrito up my hand was shaKing a lil. I could feel that the sore was super numbed but you never know if some hebenero citrus can creep in. This could be really bad.To my DELIGHT there was ZERO pain. Like I said ,the sore is there, there is always a very mild discomfort because after all there is a sore in your mouth.I've got breakfast down and an hour has passed. It says 6hr but honestly if I had to reapply now..I'd still give it 5 stars. Very happy. Very relieved. I really recommend.

As someone who loves salty foods, I have cankers from time to time. Most have little to impact to my quality of life but every once in a while I have one that hurts or bothers me to the point where I feel like I need something. I was looking on here for something to help me and really wanted to go with some type of patch/bandage but after reading the bad reviews on a few of those products, I decided to go with this product. And I'm so glad that I did.I put a little of the product on a cotton swab and dry the affected area with a paper towel as best I can and try to keep it dry by pulling my lip away from the area. While the area is still dry, I apply the product on the swab and wait about a minute before releasing my lip. I then go about my life as usual. I have had this product last over 16 hours with one application (admittedly in an area that is easy to protect). It does sting a little when first applying but my sore also hurts even when just drying it before the product - hence why I felt the need to buy something to treat and alleviate the pain and why they are called "sores."After cutting the tip off of the tube, it's very easy to apply. You only need a very small amount of product to effectively treat/protect the sore. It does form a protective barrier where applied which lessens the pain and sensitivity immensely. When I eventually run out of this product or it expires, I will be buying more. I've tried several other products over the years and nothing has worked like this, nearly as well as it does and for as long as it does. I will say that if your sore is in an area that is more exposed than my current one, you may need to reapply more often but it does work. Just make sure the area is dry prior to application and kept dry for about a minute after application.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I don’t usually leave a review but i got this because i had a MASSIVE canker sore in the BACK of my mouth, tongue rubs against it every time i talk or swallow, terrible pain. this stuff worked near instantly for pain, numbing lasted about 1.5 hours — however i’m most impressed with that 1. i ate a whole meal with this stuff on and the film it creates didn’t budge at all which is surprising considering the sore is at the back of my mouth and gets rubbed on by the food and from chewing.2. it’s 8 bucks. for three functions that are exactly as advertised (minus the numbing the pain came back a little sooner than wanted but the wound is still sealed) that’s a great price.good product.

The taste is terrible. It does work to numb canker sores. There was a small learning curve to it. I used q-tips to dry the sore, then waited to make sure it was dry, then used another q-tip to apply the ointment then held my cheek open to allow the ointment to dry for 1+ min. It helped me eat and drink without pain.

This works so well. I had a canker sore under my tongue, and it was very painful because it kept scratching against my back teeth. This product forms a sort of seal over it so you can swallow and chew and not have the pain.

Mouth ulcers are bad…4-5 days of it just wears you down. The zilactin stings initially, but if you get 2-3 hours of relief who cares? It really does give a needed break from the pain. Great product. Definitely need it as a way to deal with those damn sores
