White spots on gums?

Answer 1

You may have a slight food allergy. Or it could just be irritation from acid mouth. Bananas do that to me. Try baking soda.

Answer 2

Sounds like canker sores.They will go away, get some numbing mouth medication at store to relieve the pain.

Answer 3

If you don't chew tobacco they are canker sores. You can make them go away by increasing your oral hygene with a mouthwash such as Listerine or a solution of hydrogen peroxide and water. It will help you to make sure you are taking/getting all of your necessary vitamins, especially vit C, as a lack of this contributes to them. You can use a local anesthetic to relieve the pain in the meantime such as a rub-on cream.

Answer 4

if you chew tobacco it could be a sign of cancer or a type of std see a doctor.

Answer 5

I would for piece of mind go to the dentist.

They are probably just little ulcers.

You may have eaten something and it graized you gums and now they are trying to heal.

They can be sore.

Just use salty mouthwashes but do go see your dentist.

If you decide not to and to wait then you must go if they are still there in 2 weeks.
