Requires evaluation.: Dry mouth is a common problem with many causes. Some of the most common are medications, mouth breathing, diabetes, anxiety/depression, and dehydration. Most endocrine diseases and many autoimmune diseases can also cause dryness. Your best option is to look for obvious causes and talk to your doctor.
