hello, I'm waiting on biopsy results but dentist / surgeon are pretty sure i have OLP. So far I have: given up gluten and dairy, tried coconut oil pulling / baking soda / Gengigel (not on the same days!) bought SLS free toothpaste, started taking turmeric capsules. I am going to see a nutritionist next week to see what my intolerances really are and might try acupuncture. I'm definitely stressed about it and have health anxiety already which doesn't really help. Any ideas or help? Please.....
