Hello,
Some advice that I can give to you is:
- Sipping water or sugarless drinks often and during meals
- Avoiding drinks with caffeine, such as coffee, tea and some sodas
- Chew sugarless gum or suck on sugarless hard candy to stimulate saliva flows
- Citrus, cinnamon or mint-flavored candies are good choices
