How To Treat Sleep Disorders Due To Excessive Salivation?
Hi, for the past few days I have struggled to sleep at night due to excessive salivation. I have also found that after each meal I excessively salivate for a long while after. I think the last couple of nights I have eaten just before I went to bed. ??

hello thanks for the consult at hcm..Saliva is actually good to keep your teeth and gums healthy. However, if you feel that you have "excessive" saliva, have a consult with your dentist who can go over you complete dental and medical history and then can evaluate your complaint.during night times saliva production is generally reduced,,hence if no dental causes then plz consult a neurologist and endocrinologist to rule out medical problems,,,hope it helps,,tc
