Alum seems to be a top recommendation, apply to a Q-tip to affected areas.
When we were little we applied hydrogen peroxide to canker sores and such, apply with a Q-tip or swish and spit if she's old enough.
We also used Betadine which will work. Eliminates or reduces offensive mouth odors. As a gargle or mouth wash, as primary or adjunctive therapy in infections of the mouth and throat such as aphthous stomatitis, Vincent's infection, pharyngitis, oral moniliasis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, tongue ulcers, stomatitis, bronchitis, sinusitis and following oral surgery and dental procedures
Mouth Wash/Gargle: As a routine mouth wash: use full strength or dilute to taste. Effective up to dilution of 1 part Betadine with 2 parts water. As a gargle or mouth wash: use full strength for 30 seconds, hourly, or as directed by physician or dentist.
If nothing else see if you can get some lidocaine lollypops or see if you can get pharm. or Dr. to mix up some 'magic mouth wash' which is a RX product made up of equal parts of the following pink benadryl liquid mint ylanta/maloxx/or kaopektate liquid and nystatin liquid(antifungal RX only item) and Lidocaine jelly 2 % (RX only numbing agent).
