I’m a new Betta owner, he developed this white mark on top of his mouth. It has been there for like 10 days. Other that this he looks and acts super healthy. Still cycling the tank. I also have 2 mystery snails.

Tank is a 5gal tank.

The mark looks like some sort of disease. Even if your betta is acting fine, the best thing to do is to buy an isolation tank and give him a salt bath for 10 minutes, just to make sure. It looks like a fungal infection however I don't know the exact name.

Hope your betta gets better!
