Something that feels like fuzz around teeth and gums

Q: Why do I have something that feels like fuzz around my teeth and gums? I do have dry mouth. I use Biotene, and brush regularly, which makes it worse sometimes. Very frustrating.

A: I would suggest a visit to your dentist for an evaluation. Do you take any medications? Do you use any mouthwashes? Eat spicy foods? Are you a mouth breather? Do you have diabetes? As you can see there are many potential causes of this problem.
