Answers:
It depends on where the white line is located. If you are talking about a white line on the inside of your cheek, it is most likely the "linea alba". You can tell it is the linea alba if it is located just above and parallel to your lower teeth. It is a line exactly at the point where your teeth come together. It is completely normal and absolutely nothing to worry about.
When you go looking up linea alba, there are actually two in the body. One can be in the mouth and the other is in your abdomen between your abdominal muscles.

Is it in the side of your mouth.? Often when your jaw is shut tight or you clench (sometimes at night w/out knowing) you will have a thin line like that from where your teeth meet.Health Question & Answer
