Suggest Remedy For White Patches On Teeth
My gums appeared normal, but right after brushing and then rinsing with listerine whitening mouthwas, a small white patch appeared under one tooth. Like I said, everything looked fine prior. The spot didn't go away with brushing, but was able to scrape it off with a floss pick.I am panicking because I chew tobacco

hellooo...reading ur symptoms i feel that there is nothing to worry in this case...it can be stains caused by mouthwash(long term use) ..it is scrapable(extrinsic)so nothing to worry at all..go to dentist get scaling done(it cant be removed with brushing)..tobacco chewing cant cause much problem to tooth...it can cause problem to the gums or cheek..(best is stop that chewing habbit slowly)..be cool...hope ur benefitted something from this reply..have a healthy day!!!
