Hi! Read your query.
Insufficient hydration can cause dryness of the palate. Drink water often to keep your mouth hydrated. Also the habit of mouth breathing, snoring or certain drugs can cause dryness.
Salivation on eating or drinking is normal activity which helps the food to digest food properly. So there is nothing to worry.
Hope it helped. Feel free to ask for any more questions if you have.
