A Relief for Dry Mouth Sufferers

Dry mouth occurs when the salivary glands in the mouth do not produce enough saliva to keep the mouth moist. This condition can be caused by various factors including:

• Medications: Many prescription medications can cause dry mouth as a side effect
• Medical Conditions: Conditions such as diabetes, Sjogren's syndrome and Parkinsons disease can lead to dry mouth.
• Radiation Therapy: Treatments for head and neck cancer can damage the salivary, resulting in dry mouth.
• Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, alcohol consumption and dehydration can also contribute to dry mouth.

Managing dry mouth involves addressing the underlying cause and using products that help to alleviate symptoms. Some common treatments include:

• Hydration: Drinking plenty of water throughout the day can help to keep the mouth moist. Saliva substitutes: Products like mouthwashes, gels and sprays can mimic the effects of saliva and provide relief.
• Good Oral Hygiene: Brushing and cleaning interdentally regularly and using flouride toothpaste can help protect teeth and gums. Avoid irritants: Reducing the intake of caffiene, alcohol and tobacco can help minimise dry mouth symptoms.
