| Great product. Better than Kanka, Cank-X and natural remedies (just my opinion) by Nelson Wong 5 Stars November 13, 2009 This is a great product for canker sores. It's the only one that actually creates a protective layer over your canker sore and STAYS there. I tried Canker-X, Kanka, and Abrevia. Canker-X is so liquidy, it never dries up and ends up all over your mouth. Then the pain comes back in a few minutes. Canker-X claims to create a protective layer, but it doesn't. Kanka hurts a bunch, numbs your sore, and makes an attempt at producing a covering while getting all over your mouth. I feel like Zilactin-B is even better than home remedies such as hydrogen peroxide, aloe vera juice, baking soda, and salt. Why do I say this? Because Zilactin-B's patented bio-adhesive protective layer is that effective and it keeps me feeling great all day! You can even see it as it covers your sore. It's dark purple in color and dries up in a slightly lighter color. It's not a mystery like the other brands. I tried the home remedies and they hurt a lot. They also don't do anything about the continual pain I experience throughout the day. Zilactin-B fixed all that and now I can actually do stuff and focus on things without having a throbbing pain in my lip. Just one warning, if the protective layers comes off from picking at it or if you try to eat, your sore may bleed. In my opinion, this was a good thing. I'm no Doctor, but I think the fact that blood is being sent to my sore means it's in the healing process and repairing the damage.
To sum it up....
Pros: Colored and thick substance so you can see exactly where you are applying it to
- Keep it dried for a minute after applying and it dries up nicely
- You can see the protective layer
- Protective layer prevents further irritation
- Has medicated pain reliever in it
- Protective layer lasts up to 6 hours, sometimes longer
Cons: Stings when you apply it, but not as bad as putting salt, baking soda or Kanka directly on it. Luckily you only need to apply it maybe 2-3 times a day at the most.
| | Best stuff ever by Richard S. Ewing 5 Stars November 11, 2009 This is the best stuff for canker sores. It makes a scab over the sore that protects it and keeps the sore numbed, without numbing your whole mouth. Would recommended to anyone!!!
| | Good but not the best by Nicholas Coffee (Rochester, NY USA) 3 Stars August 10, 2008 I have been a chronic sufferer of canker sores for a long time. They have made my life miserable at times. When I went to the doctor, he recommended Zilactin to me. I have been using it for years since. It hurts like nothing else I have experienced when you put it on but then you can enjoy a meal or get some sleep for a while. They have no noticeable affect as far as healing time goes but do provide some relief. Canker Covers are much more effective and have changed the game for me. Give them a shot.Quantum Canker Cover
| | Very helpful! by Uhnghrid (Everywhere) 5 Stars March 22, 2008 Well, one night I was drunk and decided to brush my teeth. This somehow resulted in me stabbing the inside of my mouth. The tiny cut swelled up over the course of the next day and turned into the most annoying infection imaginable. When the infection started it was so itchy and burny that I couldn't help but keep poking at it with my tongue all day, so over the next two days it did nothing but get worse. By then it stung and itched/burned so badly that it was constantly distracting. I couldn't go more than five minutes without thinking about it.
So, I picked up this stuff... and wow. It made so much difference. It numbed the sore enough that I could ignore it, and once I stopped poking at it the healing began almost immediately. The painkilling effect and the protective film over the sore lasted for many hours. The sore I used it on was in the crease between my lower lip and my gums, meaning it got rubbed whenever I spoke. The coating probably lasted closer to four hours than six, but because of its location that was quite remarkable. I didn't expect it to be able to last more than thirty minutes there!
I don't get canker sores very often so I can't really compare this to other products. But Zilactin definitely got the job done. It far surpassed my expectations. Most benzocaine-based numbing products that I've used (for other purposes) last an hour at most, which makes me suspect the formula of this product is just as important as its active ingredient.
| | life saver for one with a large jaw... by Mamori (San Francisco) 5 Stars January 20, 2007 As one who suffers from chronic canker sores, this stuff makes life a lot easier.
Just as the description reads, it lasts about 6 hours, provided that you don't pick at it...
Like most direct application medicines, it will sting like crazy when you put it on...
