Normally, I just do a small mouth inspection to make sure he doesn't have any substrate pieces around his gums. When I do this, I just gently lift the sides of his lips up with my thumb (I always wash my hands before hand), and just check. He's surprisingly never gets too irritated when I do this, but I only do this seldom. When I got home from work earlier, I used a clean q-tip to ease his mouth open to check the roof of it. I researched a lot about mouth rot previous to posting this and saw that it was common for the roof of the mouth to develop spots. I bumped the humidity up some, as it was low. I have a hard time keeping the humidity straight in the apartment I recently moved into this year. He seems to be doing fine, he's actually being active and flicking his tongue a lot. Still no other symptoms, and seems to be perfectly fine still yet. I figure I'll just keep monitoring his behavior for the next few days just in case, but you guys are right I'm sure. I'll take your advice about giving him a break! I really appreciate the replies. It'd just kill me if he got an RI or mouth rot. Thanks guys.
