Is this something to be concerned about?

Edit: I emailed the breeder and asked her about it and she said it's nothing to worry about. After the COUNTLESS hours of reading care guides and such I had no idea they lost teeth lol. She is going to send me a video on how to clean to area so it's less likely to get infected I assume.

Hey all, as some of you know I got my new Northern yesterday. So far everything has been going awesome. I noticed this on Jupiter's mouth yesterday but I didn't think it was anything to worry about since I know sometimes they just get bad scales around their mouths sometimes. But I feel like I should ask just in case. She ate a full meal yesterday almost as soon as I got her home. She was eating a blackberry right before this photo was taken. It looks brownish and there are 2 or 3 little black dots on it, but I think those are just blackberry seeds. Sorry if this seems silly. I looked at it pretty closely and it honestly just looks like some shed that got stuck and it discolored from food and stuff. But if it looks like something I should be worried about please let me know.

I didn't know they lost teeth either! The more you know...lol. I bought my skink boy at two years so I don't think I have to worry about him losing teeth. Good to know nothing is wrong with them!

Lose teeth as in baby teeth to adult teeth, like humans and dogs (that was a fun time in my pupper’s life. He ate most of them)? Or is it more like crocodilians, sharks, and snakes, where they just keep getting new teeth throughout their life?

I think they just lose their baby teeth.
