Why do i gather so much spit in my mouth?!


Question:

Why do i gather so much spit in my mouth?

how come i always get so much spit in my mouth. it usually happens if i wash my mouth. What happens a lot of the time is that before bed, i brush, then i would have to go back to the bathroom 2 or 3 times because i get so much spit, and i need to spit it out. Is this normal or what?


Answers:

It is normal, and actually a good thing! I am assuming you have not had very many cavities in your lifetime?? The saliva in your mouth actually helps to clean your teeth (in a way). People who frequently suffer from "dry mouth" are more likely to get cavities, because the saliva is not there to rise away the excess food paricles left in your mouth, allowing them to collect around/in your teeth thus causing cavities.
I am sure it can be frustrating at times, but be thankful that you have too much rather than not enough :)
