It turns out that xerostomia is dry mouth. |
Dry mouth or xerostomia occurs when the glands that produce saliva stop working due to disease, medications or due to cancer treatment. |
One of the best ways to treat xerostomia is to drink water more frequently. |
The administration of antihypertensive and anticholinergic medications also impairs salivary functions and promotes xerostomia. |
This situation is called xerostomia or dry mouth. |
I guessed that the entry would be GUM, but had no idea what xerostomia was until I looked it up. |
