Why am I losing skin out of my mouth?!


Question:

Why am I losing skin out of my mouth?

I grind my teeth at night and haven't been able to wear my nightguard for a couple of weeks because it's been making me gag. I think I have food in my mouth and I reach in and I pull out a big hunk of gooey white skin. Gross! I'm wondering if I'm chewing the inside of my mouth.


Answers:

Hmm. I've experienced this before. It isn't skin but more of a mucus type consistency. I figured out it was something about my toothpaste, so I just added a fluoride mouthwash to my dental routine, (preemptive strike on cavities) and since then no probs. You can either change your toothpaste and see if it rectifies or just start using a mouthwash.
