Saliva may be made mostly of water, but there are other helpful substances in there that really go to work in keeping your mouth functioning properly. Normally, the body makes up to 2 to 4 pints of saliva a day! Some people suffer from dry mouth, which is not only uncomfortable, but is a welcome wagon for germs and bad breath. We can help those people with special recommendations and medication suggestions to get their saliva back on Team Oral Health. Keep in mind chewing foods (we recommend sugarless gum) is the most efficient way to stimulate salivary flow and most people create the most saliva in the late afternoon.
