what’s the best way to get rid of a mouth sore in a 3 yr old boy?

He has a little white sore on his gum tissue right under one of his bottom "eye" teeth. It is very painful for him. So far we’ve been rinsing with warm salt water throughout the day and Tylenol for the pain.

Orajel swipes ( q tips ). they taste yummy and numb the pain.
And don’t feed him citrus foods. That makes the pain more intense.

    Ambesol. Or there is this stuff called Kanka. It helps a lot, and puts a coating on it.

    try drying off the area with tissue and smearing Carmex on it. Repeat once an hour or as needed.

    Hey may have thrush, which he would need to get a rinse from the dr. it is a fungus of the mouth. Baby orajel works the best and stings the least, I think, for the discomfort.
