Causes:
Marijuana use can lead to a reduction in saliva production resulting in Dry Mouth, sometimes referred to as “Cottonmouth”. This decrease occurs due to substances in the cannabis plant called cannabinoids, the most common being THC and CBD. These cannabinoids bind to the part of the brain that controls the salivary glands causing a decrease in saliva production and the feeling of “cottonmouth” or widespread oral dryness. This is problematic since saliva is the natural fluid cleanser of oral health; it washes away bacteria and protects the teeth. If your mouth is continuously depleted of saliva, you have less protection against tooth decay and gum disease.
Dry Mouth side effects can range from annoying to debilitating, often impacting the ability to chew, taste, swallow, and speak. Aquoral creates a protective oral shield and lubricates the mucosa, providing relief for up to 6 hours.
Remember to drink fluids and avoid sweet substances as general rules of thumb in addition to other good oral hygiene practices. Most importantly, don’t neglect regular dental visits.

Dry Mouth is a more serious medical condition than its name would suggest. In most cases, patients’ daily lives and oral health can be significantly compromised if their Dry Mouth is not discovered early and managed effectively. It can be caused or exacerbated by more than 700 medications, both over-the-counter and prescription. Patients with certain health conditions or medical treatments, such as Sjögren’s disease or head and neck cancer therapy often experience Dry Mouth.
Despite being a common medical condition, the signs and symptoms may go unnoticed in a routine oral exam. It has been reported that the incidence of Dry Mouth in the general population is as high as 65 percent.
