What are the symptoms of yeast infection in the mouth?

Answer 1

Exactly that: A yeast infection of the mouth or Oral yeast infection

Though you can also label a yeast infection as "Candida infection" or in the case of the mouth an "Oral Candida infection"

Candida fungus being the name of the bacteria (or yeast)

Candida fungus is present in the mouth and various other parts of the body at all times, it doesn't present as a problem until it overwhelms the good bacteria in the area that usually keeps it in check. Then you end up with a bacteria explosion (called an infection), this can happen in various parts of the body, including the mouth.

Some people call it "Thrush" or "Thrush mouth"

Answer 2

It's a fungal infection. At some point your mouth provided a perfect environment for the fungus to thrive. Whether it be antibiotics destroying your normal flora so there was little competition, you ate something covered in it, your immune system was compromised so it was able to grow unchecked, some forms of the pill encourage a good breeding ground. there are many causes. what you need is a fungal-static to kill it off. fungal-statics don't kill the fungus they just prevent it from replicating. you still have to wait for the existing infection to die off, this can take up to 3 or 4 days applying it 4 times a day. take it until your bottle runs out or what ever the pharmacist recomends. eat a natural yoguart to put a good bacteria in there, this will compete with the fungus. has to be natural. sweet stuff makes it worse!

These are all broad statements though and if you have a concern I would recommend you see your dentist as they are trained in oral pathology.
