I was saying that in another post somewhere about their intelligence. The one's I was treating learned to just go limp and accept it. It was over in seconds that way instead of all the fuss and I think they figured that out after a while.

I would keep it up for a while but they probably don't need the pink stuff but once a day now. Just keep them on clean paper towels still, use the pink stuff after they eat, and follow up with the ointment maybe twice a day.

Even if the worst of it heals, their mouths might still be vulnerable to stuff getting crammed in there so keep a close eye on it and try to keep them clean. Eventually you may be able to put them back on regular substrate but you'll have to watch and make sure stuff isn't sticking to the wounded areas.
