Is it normal to have excess saliva while dentures are out?!
Question:
Is it normal to have excess saliva while dentures are out?
I am a new denture wearer, and I know in the beginning people say you experience excess saliva with the dentures in, but I notice it while they're not in my mouth. Will this stop? I feel like I have to keep swallowing every 10 seconds, and my mouth/tongue
actually gets tired! Thanks!
Answers:
It sounds like you have a very active salivary production and maybe having dentures has stimulated it even more. I truly don't know if this will lessen with time, but I must say from seeing the problems many denture wearers have with dry mouth.....I'd rather have your problem.
