Question

Main Symptoms: The gums are white and slightly hard. Onset Time: 5 days ago. Laboratory Test Results: What medication can be used to treat the milk teeth?

Answer

People often mistakenly believe that this is the reason why newborns do not like to breastfeed and resort to using needles to pick at it, but this may lead to infection, even causing sepsis. In fact, these epithelial pearls will fall out on their own and will not affect breastfeeding; no special treatment is needed. Additionally, the yellowish-white small particles on the midline of the newborn’s upper jaw are caused by the accumulation of mucus gland secretions and do not require treatment.
