Hi! The white film and lip peeling could be due to your toothpaste, especially if it contains SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate). Try switching to an SLS-free toothpaste like Sensodyne Pronamel and avoid strong-flavored products. Drink plenty of water. If symptoms don’t improve in 1–2 weeks, please visit your nearest dental clinic.
Next Steps
Switch to an SLS-free toothpaste.
Stay hydrated (drink enough water daily).
Avoid flavored mouthwashes or products.
If no improvement in 1–2 weeks, consult a dentist.
Health Tips
Do not scrub lips harshly or over-brush.
Avoid using very hot or spicy foods temporarily.
