My husband gave up cigs with me and he suffered up to last week with ulcers on roof of mouth and tongue. He used bonjella, mouth wash and salt water. They appear to have disappeared now.

I went through a really painful mouth which is just easing ip now one minth on.

I have been using corsodyl daily toothpaste and mouthwash.

someone posted a helpful comment for me about how we start to lose all the burnt skin in our mouths during the first weeks. my mouth is now emerging anew. warm salt water also helped.

good luck :-)

Hi Bevie and a big WHOOPY DOOPY DOOOOOO 5 weeks quit nowwwww, just loving it gal :) :) 

Bev, you just think about it, when you smoked, you smoked through your mouth !! sooo, your gums, tongue and mouth sort of build a resistance, a coating up to combat it :) and now your not smoking, they dont need this resistance, coating any more, so they get rid of it !! now your left with a sort of babies mouth !! sooo, it will soon get hardened off to your NEW SMOKEFREE way of life xx
