Dry Mouth
Saving Your Oral Health with Effective Dry Mouth Treatments
Xerostomia, or dry mouth, is a condition where you do not produce enough saliva, which can create a myriad of problems. Saliva is an important part of dental health. You need it to cleanse your mouth, digest food, and keep bacteria in check. Dry mouth affects how you speak, eat, chew, and swallow!
Medication, illness, dehydration, and smoking are all causes of dry mouth. Although an occasional dry mouth isn't necessarily an issue, continually experiencing dry mouth may indicate a serious health problem or a complication with your medication. Symptoms of dry mouth include:
- Frequent thirst
- Sores in the mouth
- Cracked lips
- Red, raw tongue
- Sore throat
- Bad breath
If you think you have xerostomia, make an appointment with your dentist! Treatment plans may include prescribed rinses, medicine to stimulate saliva production, or switching out medications if that's determined to be the cause of your dry mouth.
Other ways to help with dry mouth are:
- Drinking plenty of water
- Chewing Xylitol, or sugar-free, gum
- Using a room vaporizer
- Taking an artificial saliva substitute
