We’ve all experienced a dry mouth at some point or another. We may notice it when we wake up in the morning, or we may feel it if we are dehydrated. Dry mouth affects about 10% of our population and tends to be more common in women than men. If you are experiencing symptoms of extreme dry mouth, schedule a consultation with Dr. Christopher Emuedue at Greenville Family Dentistry to discuss your treatment options.
Dry mouth can be caused by a variety of factors. It can occur as a side effect of certain medication, or it may be due to a lack of saliva flow (dehydration). Dry mouth can lead to discomfort and dental problems if left untreated. If you notice a dry feeling in the mouth, frequent thirst, dry nasal passages, or mouth sores, Dr. Emuedue may need to explore treatment options with you.
If you have questions or concerns regarding dry mouth, please give us a call.
