About Xerostomia Treatments
Xerostomia is a condition that leads to the dry mouth caused by the minimal amount or absence of saliva in the mouth. Xerostomia is not viewed as a disease, but rather as a symptom. Xerostomia can be caused by radiation to the head or neck, or as a side effect of medications. In addition to the underlying disease as the cause, there are other causes for this condition. These include inadequate fluid consumption, sleeping with your mouth open, and weather conditions. The decreasing function of the salivary gland may or may not cause xerostomia to develop. This condition is most common in the elderly due to the frequent use of medication. It affects around 20% of the elderly worldwide. Xerostomia is associated with difficulty eating, speaking, swallowing, and wearing dentures. A dew patient suffering from this disease also suffers from dysgeusia, glossodynia, and other dental complications. To determine the function of the salivary gland, various diagnostic and imaging tests such as sialometry, salivary flow measurement, and sialography are recommended. If the salivary flow rate is less than 0.1 ml/minute, the condition is considered xerostomia.
