I also have used biotene since start of treatment and have had no mouth sores thus far, for corner mouth sores, the tinactin does work.
1swimmer brings up a good point. Dry mouth is common with tx and hard on our teeth. Using biotene products definitely is recommended.
as far as the inside of your mouth is concerned, i have noticed that the biotene mouth products to be very gentle and have kept my mouth healthy.

thanks so much for the great advice. I will buy some parsley and lysine today. I already have some yeast medication I can use on my chellitis.
Thanks, it seems everyone is in agreement that there are yeast so that is how I will treat them. Thanks again
thanks, i was thinking maybe there were yeast, since I have also been on a lot of antibiotics. thanks so much for the advice
my study nurse told me to use tinactin for the corners of my mouth. it really worked. good luck to you. belle
For the corner mouth sores try using (as crazy as it sounds) vagisil, they are a yeast infection, my doc gave me nystatin ointment usp but it is RX only
For canker sores, inside the mouth, you can try lysine. Parsley has lysine in it so I ate lots of fresh parsley. When that didn't work I got a dental paste which my doctor had to prescribe.
Obviously, both are side effects from tx.
