Dry mouth: My guess would be you have some nasal obstruction, from allergies or other cause. Some medications can also cause dry mouth. This type of situation cannot be properly diagnosed nor treated over the internet. If you want help, see an ENT specialist for an evaluation and discuss effects of dry mouth with your dentist as you are more prone to cavities and gum inflammation.

That's enough: If you sleep with your mouth open , if the room is low humidity. You are a set up for dry mouth. Make sure you are hydrated and that you have a good humidifier. If all else fails see a good ENT
