What could extra skin/ tissue between teeth could be?
Patient: My daughter is almost 4 and last night I thought she had some food in between her teeth when I tried to remove it I noticed it was like a skin between her teeth which is easy to see. I would like to know what causes something like that. It does not hurt her but very visable. Doctor: Hello:)Welcome to HCM.Your kid seems to be suffering a gingival inflammation. Gingiva is more also more visible during the falling of deciduous teeth.I suggest you for a checkup with your dentist to rule out any infection.Gargle after every meal and brush twice daily.Regards.
