A white spot on the gums.

A white spot on the gums may be caused by a variety of reasons, including oral ulcers, gingivitis, oral lichen planus, etc., requiring targeted treatment.

1. Oral ulcers

are mostly caused by bacterial infection or poor hygiene habits, and local ulceration may occur. Drugs such as oral ulcer powder and Bingpeng powder can be used to promote healing.

2. Gingivitis

is mainly caused by dental calculus stimulation, resulting in local inflammatory reactions, and white spots or swelling may occur. Ultrasonic tooth washing is required to remove dental calculus, and oral antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs such as amoxicillin and metronidazole may be used.

3. Oral lichen planus

is usually caused by genetic or infection factors, resulting in white stripe damage to oral mucosa. Drugs such as prednisone acetate and cyclosporine can be used. Specific medical advice should be followed.
