Peri-oral Dermatitis: May be bacterial, viral, fungal, and/or allergic in origin. Stop using toothpaste. Brush with nothing on the brush. If POD disappears try using baking soda. If POD disappears ask your Dentist for name of hypoallergenic toothpaste. If POD does not disappear, see a Dermatologist.
