Small Ice Cubes to Relieve Dry Mouth

Nature's Recipes | Oral & Dental Health

Sometimes you wake up in the middle of the night with a dry mouth, your tongue sticking to the palate and a feeling that you must drink something right away.

Moisture in the mouth matters not only for our comfort, but also for protecting the teeth. Saliva helps rinse away food residue and neutralize acids.

What You Need

• Half a cup of clean water
• A tray for making small ice cubes

How Often?

As needed during the day.

A Small Tip from Nature

Frequent small sips of water and chewing sugar-free gum may also help. It is best to avoid adding lemon or fruit juice to the ice, since acidity is not desirable in frequent contact with the teeth.

Why Is It Good?

The melting ice provides temporary moisture and refreshes the mouth.

Did You Know?

Prolonged dry mouth can raise the risk of tooth decay. If it persists, it is worth finding out the cause with a doctor or a dentist.
