Hi! Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
I read your query. Decreased salivary production can be due to various reasons like certain medications, diseases like
diabetes, sjogrens disease,
dehydration, chemo or radiotherapy, blocked
salivary gland duct, stress, etc.
This affects chewing, taste, increase cavities, gum problems.
Avoid stress, drink lots of fluids, chew sugarless gums, suck on sugar less candies. In case of medicine or disease leading to low saliva, contact your physician.
If this persists, visit a
dentist. Your salivary glands and ducts examination would be done. There are few artificial salivary rinse and spray for use on prescriprion.
Hope the answer helps you. Thank you!
