Xerostomia (dry mouth)
Dry
mouth problem is common. The lack of adequate saliva is more than
bothersome for three out of every ten Americans. When the natural flow
of saliva is reduced, you can experience trouble swallowing, pain
throughout oral tissues and, nearly always, a short-cut to dental caries
and gum disease. The tongue sticks, food doesn't have much taste, and
digestion suffers.Xerostomia, or dry mouth syndrome, can come with aging, or often as a side effect of many medications. Half of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy experience an extreme form of xerostomia, with critical effects on their dental health. There is relief in the form of dry mouth toothpaste, special saliva-producing chewing gum, or saliva substitute solutions.
For more information regarding Xerostomia and methods of treatment, please call our office.
