I have had peeling in my mouth for quite some time. This week it seems as if it is occuring everyday. What do you think this could be?

Sometimes the tissue can become dry and outer surface will exfoliate. I do not think it is serious but I think it should be seen for a definitive diagnosis. Either your regular dentist or an oral surgeon.

I had the same problem years ago and my dentist told me that a small percentage of people are allergic to tartar control toothpaste and it causes the peeling inside the mouth. Sure enough, it stopped happening when I went back to regular toothpaste. Anytime I have been in a pinch and had to substitute tartar control it happens again. Hope this helps.
