Gum disease, dry mou: Causes could be periodontal or gum disease . A dental cleaning will help this. Meticulous oral hygiene - good brushing and flossing and using a tongue cleaner daily will help. Certain medications or dry mouth can also cause a problem. Drinking a lot of water or chewing sugarless gum will help stimulate saliva production. Certain mouthwashes will help too. Gi problems can be a problem too.
