Following our blogs about what dry mouth is along with its causes, we want to focus on several recommendations to help treat this issue. It is important to know what you can do to help prevent your mouth from being dry, some tips include:

Brush and floss regularly
Use a humidifier when you sleep
Keep lips hydrated
Chew sugarless gum
Visit your dentist on a regular basis

As we mentioned in our last blog, a typical reason why someone may be affected by this issue may not be a symptom of disease or other problems, but instead because of prescription medicine. Stick around for part four of our blog series where we offer more tips.

Don’t let this issue become more serious. Dry mouth can lead to things such as gum disease and tooth decay. If you have not been able to find a cure for dry mouth, be sure to schedule an appointment with Dr. Levine in Olney, MD.
