Other conditions associated with dry mouth include:1-4, 6, 12, Potential lifestyle causes of xerostomia include the use of alcohol or tobacco, or the consumption of excessive caffeine or spicy food.4, Xerostomia can cause the following complications:1-3, 10, 12, 13, 20, The goals of treating xerostomia include identifying the possible cause(s), relieving discomfort, and preventing complications, e.g., dental caries and periodontal infections.4, Patients with complaints of dry mouth should have a detailed health history (medical and dental) performed to help with early detection and identification of potential underlying causes.1, 2, 9 In patients with xerostomia or salivary gland hypofunction, oral examination may reveal dry and friable oral mucosa and the tongue may appear dry and fissured.1, 2, 5 Patients may commonly have dental caries (especially root, cervical, or incisal/cuspal tips), plaque accumulation, gingivitis, and/or periodontitis.1, 2, 5, 20 Infections (e.g., oral candidiasis) and enlargement of salivary glands from sialadenitis may also be present.1, 2, 5, 9, 20 Other oral manifestations evident on examination may include angular cheilitis, mucositis, traumatic oral lesions, and/or difficulty in wearing/retaining oral prostheses.5, 9, 20, A thorough head and neck examination, including an intraoral evaluation to identify the presence or absence of salivary pooling on the floor of the mouth, can help a dentist identify who will benefit from further diagnostic evaluations, such as salivary flow rate measurement, minor salivary gland biopsy, or blood and microbial tests.1, 2 A patient is considered to have reduced salivary flow if the unstimulated salivary flow is 0.1 mL/min or less (measured for 5 to 15 minutes) or if the chewing-stimulated salivary flow is 0.7 mL/min or less (measured for 5 minutes).5, 20, General Palliative/Preventive Interventions, Management of xerostomia and hyposalivation should emphasize patient education and lifestyle modifications.1, 2 Various palliative and preventive measures, including pharmacologic treatment with salivary stimulants, topical fluoride, saliva substitutes, and use of sugar-free gum/mints may alleviate some symptoms of dry mouth and may improve a patients quality of life.1, 2, 5, Patients should be counseled on lifestyle tips for relieving dry mouth; these include:9, 12.

Diet and nutrition affect the health of the tissues in the mouth; and the health of the mouth affects nutrients consumed. This inadequate consumption of nutrient-dense foods combined with a lower health literacy and limited access to oral health care can put low-income populations at an increased risk for caries and other oral diseases.25, Foods such as milk and dairy products, apples, cranberries, tea, and high-fiber foods have been suggested to have cariostatic properties (i.e., inhibiting the development of caries), although more careful examination is needed.27 It has been postulated that the calcium in dairy products offsets some of the cariogenic properties of lactose by limiting enamel undersaturation during acidogenesis. Mexican American adolescents had an average of five missing or decayed teeth per child. "https://www.nidcr.nih.gov/oralhealth/Topics/DryMouth/DryMouth.htm". Increased frequency of sugar consumption and additional snacking between meals have been hypothesized to be more important in predicting caries risk than total sugar consumption.16-18 A possible rationale for this concept is that it takes approximately 30 minutes for the pH to drop after an intake of sugar, so additional sugar intake within that 30-minute period is less harmful than additional intake after 30 minutes.16 It is, however, difficult to determine the relative contribution of amount of sugar and frequency of sugar consumption to dental caries risk, given that the two are highly interrelated.16, 19. Ship JA. Click on the links below for details about trends in dental caries as well as detailed caries data from the most recent survey (20112016). ". This lower pH can also affect the balance of microbes in the biofilm such that there is a higher proportion of acidic biofilm species, compounding tooth demineralization.7 Carbohydrate consumption is therefore an important nutritional factor in the development of caries. J Dent Res 2012;91(8):753-8. A reference guide to drugs and dry mouth 2nd edition. Pharmacodynamics in older adults: a review. The pH and buffering capacity collectively determine how erosive a food or beverage is.47 Yogurt, for example, has a pH of about 4.0, but is not considered erosive due its high calcium content, which acts as a buffer.48, A meta-analysis conducted in 2012 found that soft drinks and chewable vitamin C tablets were both associated with the development of erosive tooth wear while juice, sports drinks, milk, and yogurt were not.49 This is somewhat at odds with a meta-analysis conducted in 2015 that found soft drinks and acidic snacks, as well as fruit juices, increased the odds for tooth erosion in children; and, in addition, found that intake of milk and yogurt was associated with a reduction in the occurrence of erosion.50, Dental erosion may also be caused by intrinsic factors such as stomach acid in those with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or individuals with who vomit frequently.51-53 Compared to erosion caused by extrinsic factors (i.e., dietary factors) which commonly affects the facial and occlusal surfaces of teeth, erosion caused by gastric acid primarily occurs on the palatal and occlusal surfaces of the anterior maxillary teeth and on the buccal and occlusal surfaces of the mandibular teeth.54.

Sealant Types (adapted from Albers6), Sealants are generally placed on the tooth in liquid form and then cured either chemically or with light activation.3 To prepare the tooth for bonding with the sealant system, the tooth surface is first treated with an acid etch to enhance wetting of the tooth with the liquid sealant and to optimize mechanical retention of the sealant.3 Sealants must also be of low enough viscosity to wet the tooth adequately and to flow readily into the pits and fissures on the tooth surface.3.

Clinical trials generally control for more factors, using a sample size calculated to be sufficient to detect a statistically significant change in the variable of interest.2 With any study involving nutrient intake or dietary patterns, it can be challenging to follow participants for a meaningful length of time. Moynihan P. Foods and dietary factors that prevent dental caries. It is recommended that the number of people, distractions, and noise in the operatory be minimized when providing care to a patient with dementia, although a trusted caregiver in the room may provide reassurance to the patient.27Patients should be approached from the front at eye level and use of nonverbal communication, such as smiling and eye contact, is important.27The dentist should begin the conversation by introducing himself or herself.

Dental cavities, or caries, are tiny holes in the hard surface of the teeth. The relationship that diet and nutrition have with oral health is bidirectional, as compromised integrity of the oral cavity can also influence an individuals functional ability to eat.1. Tanaka A KS. J Am Dent Assoc 2016;147(8):672-82 e12. As a follow up to the Surgeon General's Report on Oral Health in America, this report explores the nation's oral health over the last 20 years. Saliva substitutes are used as often as needed and although they do not cure dry mouth, they can provide temporary relief of symptoms.4, 23 Alcohol-free mouth rinses, lozenges, and moisturizing oral sprays and gels are marketed as OTC oral care options for patients with dry mouth.4, 6, 9 There are also toothpastes specifically formulated for use in patients with dry mouth.4, 6, A 2011 Cochrane Review25, 26 found no strong evidence that any specific topical therapy (e.g., sprays, lozenges, mouth rinses, gels, oils, chewing gum, or toothpastes) was effective for relieving the symptoms of dry mouth. Chiappelli F. No strong evidence that any topical treatment is effective for relieving the sensation of dry mouth.

With the exception of heavy alcohol consumption, which is associated with an increased risk of developing oral cancer,62 other than generalized findings, no direct relation between diet and oral and oropharyngeal cancer risk has been identified. Sealants are systems that can be applied to the occlusal surfaces of teeth to penetrate anatomic surface pits and fissures and form a physical barrier on the tooth surface.

Varela-Lopez A, Giampieri F, Bullon P, Battino M, Quiles JL. sealants can minimize the progression of noncavitated occlusal caries lesions (also referred to as initial lesions) of the tooth that received the sealant. Frequent consumption of acidic food and beverages is associated with an increased risk of erosive tooth wear. The relationship between carbohydrates and dental caries depends on the type of carbohydrate (sugars or starches) consumed because the cariogenic potential (i.e., promoting the development of tooth decay) of a given carbohydrate is dependent on how efficiently it can be metabolized by the bacteria that ferment it.8 Sugars, specifically, are considered to be the most important drivers of caries development.

Dental and oral health-specific recommendations from the National Institute for Dental and Craniofacial Research3 and others5, 9, 13 include the following for patients with dry mouth: Salivary Stimulants. Percentage of Seniors with Total Tooth Loss (Table 2). Collectively, natural and free sugars (e.g., sucrose, glucose, fructose) are considered the primary necessary factors in the development of caries.8 Sucrose, a disaccharide of glucose and fructose, is the most cariogenic sugar.8 Sucrose acts as a substrate for the synthesis of intra- and extracellular polysaccharides in dental plaque.8-10 Additionally, dental plaque formed in the presence of sucrose has been shown to have lower concentrations of calcium, inorganic phosphate, and fluoride, which are the ions required to remineralize enamel and dentin.10, 11 Sucrose and its constituent monosaccharides, glucose and fructose, are also more cariogenic than starches because they enter the glycolytic pathway more rapidly and result in a more pronounced drop in pH.12 Although lactose is also a sugar, it is less cariogenic than sucrose, fructose, and glucose because its fermentation produces a smaller drop in pH.9, 13, In addition to the type of sugar consumed, the amount consumed may affect caries development.

A 2014 systematic review examining the effect of free sugar consumption on dental caries observed a consistent association between free sugar intake and caries development; higher incidence of caries was found in populations where free sugar intake was greater than 10% of total energy intake compared to those with free sugar intake of less than 10%.14 This systematic review informs the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for sugar intake, which recommends that free sugars be less than 10% of total energy intake, with a further reduction to less than 5% suggested.15, Frequency, or how often free sugars are consumed, may also play a role in caries development. that differ in the presence or absence of a particular condition of interest are compared to see what factors might differ between the groups, providing potential clues about cause and prevention of that condition.

Download the Report790 pages Overall, adolescents 12 to 19 years had an average of one missing or decayed permanent tooth per child and those from families with lower incomes had more severe decay in the permanent teeth. For instance, epidemiological studies are primarily observational, meaning that the populations compared can differ from each other by any number of uncontrolled factors.
