What Causes White Glue-type Ooze From Gums?
My elderly aunt has had a white, glue type texture that pours from her gums and has been doing that for over 3 months. NO one has any ideas what is causing it. She rinses her mouth with hydrogen peroxide and nothing helps. Any ideas or thoughts would help.

Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. The white glue type of fluid could be the pus discharge secondary to the gum infection. consult a oral physician and get your teeth examined and get your teeth cleaned. Maintain oral hygiene after getting your teeth cleaned by brushing your teeth twice daily and use mouth washes. i hope my answer will help you, take care.
