Teeth and gums

Has anyone noticed that their gums are hurting when eating and drinking? And have your teeth become sensitive to hot and cold food and drinks? Does anyone suffer from their tongue having a white film or looking white?

    Unfortunately, Lupus can affect any part of our body including our teeth and gums.
    Many in this community have shared similar issues with teeth sensitivity, gum and tongue issues.
    I hope some will chime in here with their experiences.
    In the meantime, I'm sharing these two articles that may provide some helpful information: https://lupus.net/living/dental-health and https://lupus.net/living/juggling-complications
