Description
Kank-A Maximum Strength Mouth Pain Liquid temporary relieves pain due to canker sores, minor irritation of the mouth and gums caused by dentures or orthodontic appliances, or minor injury of the mouth or gums. Kank-A® Mouth Pain Liquid is ideal for treating canker sores and other abrasions inside the mouth by delivering maximum strength benzocaine (20%) for fast pain relief, while forming a long-lasting barrier that protects the area around the sore. Unlike most canker sore treatments which quickly wash away, Kank-A’s coating holds the anesthetic in contact with the sore and acts as a barrier against further irritation. Kank-A Liquid includes an integrated applicator allowing for accurate, mess-free delivery of medication every time – no fingers, swabs, etc. required. FSA/HSA Eligible: Kank-A Mouth Pain Liquid is typically eligible for Flexible Spending Accounts and Health Spending Accounts. Check with your plan provider for more details.

Your tongue is getting white.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im the kind of person that i forgot to drink water and sometimes i got burns on my mouth and this product. The formula helps with the breakout and is very effective with it, the flavor helps a little still taste like medicine. Texture feels like a gel.

Great product, one isse
I rarely get canker sores but when I do this is the only thing that works. Me one issue is it seems to have a new applicator from what I'm used to. although the new one holds more of the ointment it is rough when applying to a sensitive spot. I feel the old smooth one is the better option.

Fast Acting & Easy Application
I loved how easy this product was to apply with the tip applicator, no mess with your fingers. I get occasional canker sores in the winter & when travelling -- it's perfect to store & carry with you wherever you go. It numbs the pain quickly & lasts for a long time.

Only effective product and I need advice on how to dry the film quicker
Please explain a way waiting for the film to dry. How do you blow into your mouth and avoid drooling and having to spit out the drool and keep the pain liquid to dry in your mouth on the canker sore?

The burn means it's working
Make sure the area is dry and stays dry for about 2 minutes after applying. It burns when you apply it to a canker sore at first but it numbs up quick. After a couple of minutes the film has formed and you can go about your business. Re apply when the film starts to wear off. the applicator is weird

Ouch...but quickly helps
My canker sores under my top lip are horrendous. I went thru 2 Rxs of antibiotic and as soon as i finished them the sores immediately came back. I was told to stay off sugar & it would help. I needed immediate help so grabbed Kanka & after the 30 seconds of intense burning pain, all pain went away.

Had to write a review to help someone out there.
Canker sores and other mouth pain issues can stop you in your tracks and distract you from your day to day. This stuff knocks out the discomfort within minutes and allows your issue to heal. I really couldn’t believe how quickly it worked. I immediately had to find where I could share this.

Works wonders!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to wait until just the right moment to try this product, but when I finally had a canker sore, this is what I grabbed. This created immediate relief for me and was super helpful in making it a bearable situation. No one ever wants these sores, but to have a product that helps sue them and heal them is truly amazing.
