For the newbies, the first signs of Canker is swelling of the gums so that the lips dont close or line up properly. You will also see tiny spots of blood on the gums and further within the mouth. Open sores start to develop and from within those sores comes the cheesy crap that's associated with Canker. The cheesy crap usually looks just like cheese spread but can also look like scrambled eggs and it clings to the gums.
I've seen severe cases where the gums are completely replaced by this cheese and it has spread down into the throat. I've seen jaws break and crumble when touched with a swab and the palatine teeth fall out.
It's definately a serious problem that must be dealt with as soon as it's discovered. If ignored, it will lead to the animals death.
I actually fear mouth rot more than a mite infestation.
