I went to the dentist to get a cleaning and flouride trays made. Since my cancer is in my cheek and roof of my mouth, Im in a great deal of pain. My dentist has given me what I consider a miracle. He gave me something he calls magic mouthwash. It's made of 30% benadryl, 30% mylanta, and 30% Lidocaine. After trying it my mouth instantly felt relief. Has anyone else heard of this or used it? If not I hope you will ask your doctor to give you a prescription for it.
