Xerostomia (dry mouth) - At Smiles By Landy We Can Help
Dry
mouth problem is common in Bermuda. The lack of adequate saliva is more
than bothersome for three out of every ten Bermudians.
When the natural flow of saliva is reduced, you can experience trouble
swallowing, pain throughout oral tissues and, nearly always, a short-cut
to dental caries and gum disease. The tongue sticks, food doesn't have
much taste, and digestion suffers (For more details call us at
(441) 296-0990).
Dr. Landy knows that Xerostomia, or dry mouth syndrome, can come with
aging, or often as a side effect of many medications. Half of cancer
patients undergoing chemotherapy experience an extreme form of
xerostomia, with critical effects on their dental health. At Smiles By
Landy we can help provide relief in the form of prescriptions for dry
mouth toothpaste, special saliva-producing chewing gum, or saliva
substitute solutions.
For more information regarding Xerostomia and methods of treatment,
please call our office at (441) 296-0990.
