Dry mouth, also known as xerostomia, is a common condition that can lead to a range of uncomfortable and potentially serious health problems.

When the mouth lacks sufficient saliva, it can become dry and uncomfortable, leading to issues such as mouth sores, irritated soft tissue and gums, and an increased risk of tooth decay. In addition, dry mouth can also cause bad breath and make it difficult to speak or swallow comfortably.

Many medications (such as anti-depressants, anti-histamines, antihypertensives, antipsychotics, etc), long term use of CPAP machine for sleep apnea, mouth breathing, Sjogren's disease, head & neck cancer treatment, use of medical marijuana, uncontrolled diabetes, neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's/Parkinson's/ALS, and many more conditions and/or their treatments could bring about less saliva production and xerostomia. 

SalivaMax, an artificial saliva, water-based rinse that helps to moisten the mouth and reduce the risk of these issues that is prescription strength. This product is a supersaturated calcium phosphate rinse designed to promote remineralization of the teeth and to buffer the pH of the mouth, which can be beneficial in addressing enamel demineralization (a.k.a. decay formation on the teeth) or mucositis (inflammation of the lining of the inside of the mouth) that are due to lack of saliva. It also lubricates the mouth which means less food would get stuck to the teeth to begin with.

In addition to its dental benefits, SalivaMax can also help to improve bad breath that is often caused by dry mouth. By increasing saliva production, SalivaMax can help to wash away food particles and bacteria that can lead to unpleasant odors. And would make swallowing and speaking easier. 

Each box of SalivaMax contains 30 packets of supersaturated calcium phosphate, which is designed to stimulate the production of saliva when dissolved in water and swished around in the mouth. To use SalivaMax, simply dissolve one packet in 1 oz of water (about 1/8th of a glass) and swish half of the solution in your mouth for 1 minute. Spit it out and repeat with the remaining solution. It's important to use the entire packet within 3 minutes of dissolving it in water for maximum effectiveness. This product does not have any synthetic flavor. In fact, when dissolved in water, it tastes like water! There's no need to chug a glass of water or use any special equipment – just a packet of SalivaMax and a bit of water is all you need.

Many users report experiencing relief from dry mouth symptoms within a few days of starting to use SalivaMax, although it may take up to a week for the full effects to be noticeable. The recommended usage is to rinse with 3-4 packets per day, although for those with severe dry mouth, up to 10 packets per day may be necessary.

If you're someone who suffers from dry mouth, whether due to medications such as anti-depressants, radiation to head & neck, age, or other factors, SalivaMax may be a great solution.

This medication may contain sodium. Before using this medication, talk to your physician if you are on a salt-restricted diet or if increased salt intake could worsen your condition (such as heart failure, high blood pressure).
