Feeling pf mouth skin may be due to desquamative gingivitis as a result of various autoimmune disorders. Certain laboratory investigations help to diagnose the condition. You can consult through this for prescription of medication based on history and lab investigations. Whichever comfortable toothpaste you can use .based on clinical examination of your teeth condition, toothpaste can be used.
