How Do Mouth Ulcers Grow? (For Kids)
Hello there! I'm here to help explain how ulcers can grow in your mouth.

First, let's talk about what an ulcer is. An ulcer is a sore or wound that forms on the lining of your mouth or stomach. It can be very painful and make it difficult for you to eat or drink.

Now, how do these ulcers grow? Well, they start off as tiny, irritated areas in your mouth. These areas are called erosions. Over time, if not treated properly, the erosions can become bigger and deeper, turning into full-blown ulcers.

So, to keep your mouth healthy and prevent ulcers from forming or growing, it's important to take good care of your teeth and gums, and to avoid things that might irritate your mouth, like spicy or acidic foods. If you have any concerns about ulcers, it's best to talk to a doctor or dentist for advice.
