What Is Dry Mouth?
Does your mouth ever feel extremely dry or like it’s full of cotton when you wake up in the morning? If so, you are experiencing dry mouth. This condition occurs when there is too little saliva in the mouth. Continual issues with dry mouth can be problematic because saliva is necessary to help rinse away lingering food and bacteria. When bacteria lingers on and between the teeth as well as along the gumline, it will lead to problems such as gum disease and tooth decay.
