Noticing small amount of saliva in corner of mouth. but not excess saliva in mouth - in fact, the back of my mouth doesn't have much saliva. i've read what causes excess saliva, but i'm wondering if being mildly dehydrated could do this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dehydration lowers salvia production. So not that. Keep a saliva diary and share with your Dr.
