Hello dr. i have a white coating on my tongue that reoccurs i usually brush it off in the morning. also sometimes white lining is on the cheek and sometimes it forms a little lump on the cheek it doesn't hurt at and goes away by itself any ideas?

Candida?: You MAY have a yeast infection. Please see your doctor. People who have recently taken antibiotics are especially at risk. Peace and good health.

Of no concern: What you described is not of any health concern and is within the normal range of oral health.

Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats.
