Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain saliva coming out of mouth while sleeping can be due to mouth breathing habit..
If you have a habit of sleeping with open mouth then the Saliva will drip from the mouth outside as well as due to mouth continuously open the swallowing reduces and saliva pools in mouth and atbtimws drips out..
I would suggest you to start sticking a vertical strip of micropore tape over the closed lips before sleeping..
Gradually the habit will incorporate of sleeping with closed mouth and the salivary dripping will reduce..

For further discussion you can consult me directly by the following URL:
