[|Human|] Can a child have a skin tag in their mouth? My child is complaining about something moving in his mouth and freaking out. I have him lay back on my lap and take a look. I see in the far back, last tooth what looks like is skin coming from the side of his mouth going in the crease of his tooth. I moved it with my finger and it looks like very light blood at the end of it.
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . As per your complaint it seems that the skin flap that is present behind the last tooth is nothing but a gum flap that has been opened up for the eruption of tooth and does not seem to be anything abnormal. In case if it is growing over the cheek then it can be a soft tissue overgrowth known as Fibrous. I would suggest you to consult a Periodontist and get evaluated, and a thorough clinical evaluation can help in exact ruling out what it is.However, either of the conditions are harmless, and you need not worry about it. In case if it's a gum flap it will gradually take its firm place as the teeth will erupt and in case if it is a fibrous then it has to be remover by a very minor surgical procedure. Hope this helps. Regards.
