Protect Your Oral Health With Dry Mouth Treatment
When your mouth isn’t producing enough saliva, you aren’t washing bacteria and food particles away from your teeth and gums. This can increase your risks for dental health issues such as plaque, cavities, and gum disease. As part of our general dental care, Dr. Stanfield can recommend lozenges or other products to alleviate your dry mouth discomfort.
He may also recommend other options to try at home, such as:
- Chewing sugar-free gum
- Reducing your caffeine and alcohol consumption
- Avoiding mouthwashes made with alcohol
- Purchasing over-the-counter products
You may have underlying concerns that should be addressed as well. If you’re also dealing with daytime drowsiness, waking up throughout the night, gasping for air while you sleep, or snoring, you’re showing signs of sleep apnea. We can create a custom-fit mouthguard that will keep your airways open while you sleep and stop you from snoring. This also helps eliminate dry mouth issues.
Living with chronic dry mouth means it’s even more important to visit us regularly for checkups. You’ll want to stay on top of your cleanings and exams so we can ensure your oral health is at its best.
