3 Simple Remedies to Reduce Nighttime Salivation
- Change your sleeping position
Sleeping on your back promotes better mouth closure. Avoid sleeping on your stomach or side , especially if your mouth opens easily during sleep. An ergonomic pillow can improve your posture.
- Take care of your oral hygiene
Thorough brushing, flossing, and proper mouthwash are essential. Poor hygiene or a mild infection can be enough to disrupt saliva production.
- Check your medical treatments
Some medications can increase salivation. If you suspect a side effect, talk to your doctor. Never change any medication without medical advice.
