A lot of the skin in my mouth is coming off. what is causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sloughing: When the 'skin' in our mouth 'comes off' it is usually a result of a chemical irritation of the buccal mucosa. Some antiseptic mouth rinses can cause this (especially ones with a high % of alcohol) or a strange new spice or exotic food stuff may be the cause. Home remedy would be to eat a bland diet, stop all rinses and use salt water. Continue great home care. Check with your md or dds asap.
