Suggest Remedy For Dry Mouth In Individuals With Recurring Ulcers

I have very dry mouth in morning. Have been getting ulcer/blisters randomly throughout mouth pretty consistently lately. They appear red then fade away then appear again etc. Some white some look more like red sore.
Saw ENT recently and thinks fungal sinusitis.
Gums are very sensitive but not red or swollen. Gums bleed easily when flossing sometimes.
Area behind molars sensitive when eating.
I clench teeth a lot. k

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have dry mouth with recurring ulcers which seems to be due to nutritional deficiency and due to improper oral hygiene.

I would suggest you to consult oral physician once and take complete history and check other symptoms to find what exactly causing dry mouth. You should take plenty of fluids and avoid fried food. You should use saliva substitute as it will enhance secretions of saliva and try to breath from nose instead of mouth. you should chew sugar free gum.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
