Summary

Higher prevalence of recurrent aphthous ulcer in young adults and the severity decreased with increasing age. The etiology of aphthous ulcer remains unclear. Other possible factors include trauma, drug use, deficiency in vitamin B12, folic acid, iron, stress, hormonal changes and metabolic diseases. Many topical agents such as local and systemic an- tibiotics, local antiseptics, topical NSAIDs, and topical corticosteroids are generally prescribed for symptomatic relief. Several approved drug for- mulations such as pills, mouthwash, sprays and paste such as vitamin B12, chlorhexidine mouthwash, steroid lozenges and local anesthetics are primarily suggested for the treatment of aphthous ulcer.
