Which Doctor Should I Contact For Excessive Salivation?

Hi, I am 35 years old male and suffering from excessive salivation for almost 2 years now. I did go to a doctor and he asked me just to swallow it. I was also given some medication to treat indigestion. Could you please guide me to a proper department or a doctor to consult? thanks.

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi, excessive salivation usually is because of some irritant in the oral cavity like sharp tooth margin or irregular tooth and this should be corrected. If there is none, then treating reflux helps in decreasing the problem. Please see an ENT and if required, he/she can refer you to a dentist. Regards
