Hey Chrissy,
Just wanted to jump in here, and one thing that I've found that's helped me with mouth sores (I used to get them all the time) was I got a toothpaste that didn't have SLS (a detergent) in it. Unfortunately the only toothpaste I've foudn without SLS in it was Burt's Bees natural toothpaste. It doesn't have flouride in it, but I think as long as you don't drink exclusively bottled water you're fine. The taste takes getting used to, as does not having the toothpaste foam in your mouth, but I haven't had a single mouth sore since, and that was three months ago! I found it at Whole Foods, but other places that carry Burt's Bees stuff may have it. Here's the link to the toothpaste: Lavender Mint flavor and Cinna Mint flavor
I don't know if it'll help you as well, but it may be worth a shot.
