What are the reasons for the white upper and lower jaw?

Patient's question:

What is the reason for the white substance in the upper and lower jaw? It just appeared recently, and it doesn't hurt or itch. I only noticed it while brushing my teeth. There is white stuff on both the upper and lower teeth. Do I need to go to the hospital to check it?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, no special treatment is required. Do not listen to the elderly's advice to rub it off with a cloth or pull it out, as this can easily lead to infection. It usually falls out after the milk teeth erupt or after a period of time. It generally does not cause other effects. If there is no change after a long time, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for treatment. It is generally advised to pay more attention to rest and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
