Dry mouth: occurs when the salivary glands that make saliva don't work properly. Also the main causes are anxiety, certain medications, certain diseases and infections and side effect of certain medical treatments. See your primary care physician for evaluation, labs and diagnosis.

More info needed...: Having a dry mouth can be caused by so many different things... it can be as simple as not drinking enough water during the day. Certain medications can also cause a dry mouth. It may be a good time to consult with your local physician... an examination is in order.
