Alcohol mouthwash: Too much saliva may occur in association with pregnancy, excessive starch intake, gastroesophageal reflux disease, pancreatitis, liver disease, serotonin syndrome, and oral ulcers. Brushing and rinsing with alcohol-containing products may produce drying effects.

Don't try: Saliva is the body's way of promoting health in the mouth. Saliva has minerals which fight cavities and also properties to help protect against other issues in the mouth. A dry mouth is at greater risk of disease.
