Try rinsing your mouth at least 5 times per day with a mixture of...

16 oz warm water
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp salt

This helps with healing mouth sores so it should help you too. Also get some protein powder or up your protein intake for about a week. Protein will help you to heal faster. Between those two things, you should heal alot faster.

Good luck!!!
