Likely an aphthous ulcer. I've had this problem for a long time (with burning). However, both allicin and andrographis cleared it up for me at different times.
Andrographis was my miracle, though. I was amazed that, after four years with a mouth full of these, finally, something worked in less than one week's time.
Be sure to have your dentist take a look. You may be sent to another mouth specialist to be sure but if either allicin or andrographis help, go for it.
I suggest first the andrographis. Within one week, mine got a lot better with this.
Andrographis. I'd start with one, a couple times a day. After brushing, let this roll around in your mouth and softly chew. It is VERY bitter, but it will help. You can add a touch of organic coconut oil to cut the bitterness a bit.
Drink lots of water and you will be getting rid of more water, too. This may make you a little tired, if so, try the allicin.
Do not chew this in your mouth as you would andrographis. Swallow the allicin whole (best with a little food).

I'll come back (maybe tomorrow) with more background on these. Both are in two different books about lyme.

Also, for soothing, see if your closest pharmacy carries CankerMelts - you can even fall asleep with one in, they contain licorice, which has antimicrobial properties.
Coconut oil, too, is soothing. Aloe vera, gel, too.
Stop using toothpaste that has sodium laurel sulfate. I use just baking soda, letting it dissolve a bit on my spoon (well, what ever that is that oh, brushes - a toothbrush!). You just don't want the baking soda to scratch your teeth so let it soften up a bit. ------
Be sure to get all the nutrients that you need. B vitamins, folic acid, etc. -

If toxin exit points do not work, the body finds other ways for the overflow, i.e. skin and mucus membranes. Check for underlying problems. www.allergie-immun.de/Englisch. There is also a thread moving here --- Allergie Immun Germany. Lyme has many faces!
