Can chips cause Canker sores?
Answers:
The extra salt on chips can cause cankers. Rinsing with saline can't hurt. I know exactly what you're talking about! I started taking a supplement called The Canker Spanker, which heals the sores you have and helps prevent new ones. Works great! Highly recommended. They are online and in a few stores, check'em out!
Canker sores are not caused by eating chips, rather they are caused by stress or improperly maintaining a healthy mouth. You probably had the canker sore developing and the acid from the chips could have made the canker sore more noticeable.
On the other hand you stated that it was just a pain in the first part of your question. This could mean that the chip might have cut your cheek slightly. Don't get me wrong, chips aren't "dangerous" but they do have sharp edges when breaking them down.
If you have an obvious white spot that is slightly inflamed, it is most certainly a canker sore. If not- it is probably a minor cut caused by the chips! :)
Have a great day.
