What are the causes of canker sores?

Q.
I get canker sores quite often, This is something my mother usually gets as well, so I suppose it must be genetic in some respects. Is there something I can do to try and stop this from ahppening? Is it to do with oral hygiene?
A.

It is still unknown exactly why some people are prone to Canker sores.  It does not have to do with hygiene.  It is suspected to be systemic in nature with certain factors contributing to their occurrence.  Some of these things are trauma to the tissue and certain acidic foods in the diet such as citrus.         Dr. Lemongello
