Silvadene OK on external mouth sore?

Cyrus has a small sore on the very tip of his mouth. I think it has been from an occasional rub on the screen. Sometimes when he falls he'll hit the screen on the way down and it may also be from licking water droplets from the top after humidifier running. It does not look serious, no mouthrot, etc. (though keeping an eye on it).

I have read that silvadene is sometimes used for mouthrot so I assume it would be safe in this case as well (if it a little is ingested). I also have betadine which I can dilute but was not sure if this would be OK to use.

thanks for the help.

I had put a tiny bit on at night, but gently wiped off in morning before he ate or drank anything. I'll begin putting it on after meals and drinking once he is done licking his lips ;)

thanks
