I have white splodges on my top gums, which seem to have appeared out of nowhere. They don't come off with brushing, and it actually looks like egg white, which is a bit odd! Any ideas what it could be? I have good dental hygeine but have suffered from Gingivitis in the past

Could it be oral thrush?

You'll need to see a doctor if you have that.

That's what I thought too.

It doesn't look as bad as that, and it doesn't rub away. Those pictures are nasty! I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for your responses

I've had oral thrush and mine wasn't as severe as in those pictures either!
