What is the cause for dryness of mouth and breathing through mouth and decreased secretion of saliva? what are the remedy for these?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dry mouth remedies: There are many causes of dry mouth so i'll focus on easy remedies: breath through your nose, chew sugar free gum, don't smoke or chew tobacco, drink plenty of water, maintain room humidity with a humidifier. (dry mouth also increases risk of gum disease so practice good oral hygiene and use a mouth rinse.).
