Oral Care In Residents living in a residential Care facility who have dry Mouth.

Martha Rowe

Dry mouth syndrome occurs when there is not enough saliva (spit) in the mouth. A dry mouth is a symptom of an underlying problem, rather than a disease in itself. Causes may include drugs or medication, dehydration, mouth breathing, Sjogren's syndrome, infection, nerve problems and some cancer treatments.
