For quite some time, I've had a few oral issues that have been of concern to me. Now, I do tend to be a worrier but figured it's never a bad thing to ask.
I have a fairly constant appearance of a white film/scum type substance show up mainly in the cormers of my lips. For the most part, I can feel when it is there or building up and go to a mirror and wipe or pick it off. I also tend to have a saliva problem in which smetimes I have an odd, chalky taste in my mouth and often tend to have a buildup of siliva when talking a lot.
I driak a lot of water and fluids. I used to have cuts in the corners of my mouth along with the film and my dentist said I might have chelitis. He gave me some samples of Biotene toothpaste and mouthmash and i've been using them ever since. The scum problem and taste did seem to lessen but has not gone away all together and is sometimes worse than others. And, it does seem the more stress I have, the worse these things are.
Any idea what could be wrong here? Is there anything major i should be worried about? Any info would be helpful.
If needed, I can provide details about anythign you may need like diet, personal history or whatever. You can also just look up some of my prior posts if you want to.
