Dry Mouth (xerostomia)

Dry mouth is not only uncomfortable but it can be a large factor for many oral health issues.  Dry mouth can be a result of certain medications or disease.  Problems start arising because of the absence of adequate saliva to cleanse the teeth surfaces.  As a result, plaque sticks even more leading to a much higher risk and incidence of cavities.  There are certain dental products to help with dry mouth.
