Brief Answer:
Need more information.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your query. Excessive salivation can be mostly due to underlying conditions like acid reflux associated with gastritis or upper respiratory tract infection or inflammations like sinusitis or tonsillopharyngitis.
If you provide more information then it will be more helpful.
Do you have any burning sensation in throat or chest or any heart burn ?
Do you have any recurrent upper respiratory tract infections?
Any discomfort in throat or tooth or gingivitis?
Please update the above informations. I am happy to help.
Thanks.
