Hey there,
I have a very strange problem and for my sake I hope there is some more people with it …sorry Smile

Inside my mouth (lips and cheeks) are peeling. This feels very strange, especially when I touch it with tongue. I can actually take the skin off …
Is anybody here with this problem?

Hello, hello!
I am glad I am not the only one Smile

I think I found a reason for this- toothpaste Smile

I am using herbal toothpaste and since then the situation is much better. Try it! Maybe this will work for you too.
Regards!

I have had this problem for the last year or so...
I have discovered two reasons...
1.One reason I discovered is Toothpase. If I use any toothpase other than sensodyne, a thin flimsy layer of skin peels of inside my mouth almost everyday. It is not a good feeling.
2. The second reason is some deficiency in the body. I don't know what it is. I eat very health, but tend to ignore eating reasonable quantity and not balanced That is one reason, when I eat balanced diet, I stops
3. Reason is hormonal changes in the body and again some deficiency in the boy. That is for the first time skin started peeling fo inside my mouth.
It is now on and off. when it starts I know something is missing in my body. some vimatin deficiency due to hormonal changes..
If somebody can figure out what deficiency it is would be great...
hope this helps...

I am also in need of help with this area. I woke up one day about 2 months ago and the inside of my lips, top and bottom were feeling really wierd...like a bubbly sensation and when I touched my tongue to them they felt really wierd...then I noticed that it was skin coming off...it would get loose enough that I could pull it off with my teeth...no pain...just wierd...and then my tongue started feeling kind of coated...I quit drinking my coffee creamer because they tended to make it worse...and I asked the doctor and he said He didn't know...He said it wasn't herpes or anything like that...I changed toothpastes, watched what I was eating and still its there...some days it seems as though its going away and then it flares up again...If anyone can help please let me know..
Thanks

I was just looking this up as well. I do not think its oral cancer. In my situation I noticed it began when I started using a pro health toothpaste. I stopped using it right away but now a month and a half later it has started back up. I am eating a very health diet so maybe I will try one of the recommended toothpastes above. And yes, I wish there was a diagnosis as well.

For the past couple of mths I've noticed the inner mouth peel going on. I went to the dentist today and mentioned it. I've used Listerine for the past 4 yrs or so in the AM and again before bed in the PM. I switch around toothpastes between Colgate, Crest and Aquafresh. Right now using Aquafresh. The Dentist said to lay off the mouthwash. He said that the listerine contains alcohol, and it could be the alcohol burning off the layers. So, I'm going to stop taking that, something I've done for 4 yrs. As a kid, I remember hearing that our bodies change every 7 yrs so perhaps it's that. The Dentist said if it doesn't go away, he'll refer me for a biopsy. Glad I'm not the only one with this, and it doesn't seem like anyone has a bad answer like a disease, so that's a positive. Good luck.

Hello

I recently realized similar problem, this presents itself only in the mornings. My questions is why only in the morning? Am I releasing a certain chemical in my sleep? Where does that come from?

Then I realized as most has mentioned that I changed toothpastes!!! This from herbal white(Colgate) to Aquafresh Whitening paste and after reading everyone's comments this could be the cause for me.

Thank you.

hello, i just recently started the whole mouth peeling thing. yes it seems very strange. but i think there's a simple answer. I never had this hapen before until i started using listering mouthwash. it's always a little painful when i use it so im assuming that it's burning the top layer of skin in my mouth. Smile

I haven't switched toothpastes and it's still happening, plus my husband got it as well which is weird.
i don't know what the connection is. Mine seems to have eased up alot.
