Hello,
Read your query, as you have sores and abscess in mouth this can be due to improper oral hygiene dont worry for this I will suggest you to do warm saline gargle two - three times a day, and use mouthwash chlorhexidine regularly, use tongue scraper and if symptoms persists consult your dentist for oral examination .
Hope this will help you.
