Easing the pain of denture sores

What can be done to help ease the pain and heal denture sores?

Try massaging a small amount of bonjela gel onto the sore area. It starts to numb the pain quickly because it contains a local analgesic (pain reliever) and anti-inflammatory agent to reduce any swelling. It also contains an anti-bacterial ingredient which helps fight infection.

Because of this triple mode of action, bonjela gel has been tried and trusted by thousands of denture wearers to help relieve the pain and heal the sores caused by dentures. In fact, one study found that 95% of patients who had denture sores and used bonjela gel experienced relief from the pain1 while another found that 86% experienced healing of their denture sores - just by using bonjela gel.2
