Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have bad teeth , plaque on teeth, for this you should
Do proper Brushing twice daily
Do Chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily to prevent bad breath
And go to dentist for Oral Prophylaxis
As you have mentioned that you have plaque on your lips for this you should go for Local examination to dentist for proper diagnosis, may be it can be Traumatic keratosis , or and white lesion that you are thinking of plaque
Or if it is plaque go for Scaling and root planning
Hope this will help you.
Wish you good health
Regards
