Opinions on Bonjela

[chrisxuk]

Hi there, recently i've been getting a lot of mouth ulcers because of my brace. I saw an advert today for Bonjela once and was just wondering if anybody has used them and if they are any good

I just leave them personally. Usually go inside a couple of days. From people that have used bonjela they all tell me it tastes too good so you just lick it off and therefore its pointless.lol

A young woman I know uses Bonjela because of her braces.

Use wax on the tips of the brace archwire where necessary.
Bonjela although reasonably good at short term numbing of pain is somewhat acidic and can prolong the duration of mouth ulcers.

tastes good imo and does a not bad job of slightly numbing an area for a while.

Works for about 5 minutes. Not worth the money. Use salt instead and power through.

bonjela always works really good for me. ulcers usually go much quicker if ive used it

You're better off buying some wax for your brace and applying it to troublesome spots than using Bonjela every time an ulcer appears.

I've had one for over a week.

Still, I'm far too alpha to use medication on it.

Bonjella is pants, if you want to numb the pain stick some Anbesol on it then rub in some Adcortyl In Oralbase to treat it.

Use bonjela for carp injuries when im fishing.

However if you get tooth ache or a mouth ulcer seriously try clove oil.
It stinks like nothing on earth.. It tastes like nothing on earth but my god does it kill the pain... Seriously try it.

Corsodyl mouthwash is good for getting rid of them

That's what I do, scrape it then apply salt. Feel the burn!
Use mouthwash too, help kill the bad bacteria

Bonjela tastes great though

Yay I get alpha points for using salt

Use liquid anbesol instead, far better.

Salt is the truely alpha way to go. i find bonjella just comes off almost instantly, the cgi advert is a lie

 

[Belmit]

I find it works pretty well in terms of numbing the pain, but it's liking trying to get butter to stick to a Teflon pan.

Mouth Wash, Listerine is my fave. Although it does make you dance

I'm afraid I will have to close this thread since it is closed as Medical.
