by Lee Kaplan, MD. White spots on skin can be caused by a variety of conditions, including allergies, infections and autoimmune disorders. Some of the most common forms are eczema, seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis. Eczema is a chronic, probably genetic, inflammatory condition that causes dry, itchy, cracked skin on feet, arms, ankles, face and chest. Scratching can make it worse, actually thickening the skin. Sometimes the skin can blister.
White spots on the surface of the tooth occur because teeth are constantly exposed to plaque. When plaque is left on the tooth for a full three weeks without proper brushing, the plaque bacteria begins to produce an acid. This acid wears away at the enamel of the tooth causing it to appear white.
