Carry a water bottle like during the day and keep a glass of water at your bedside at night. Use a humidifier to increase the moisture content of the air in your room.

To stimulate your saliva supply, try these measures:

• Eat foods that require mastication
• Chew sugarless gum
• Eat non-acidic, sugarless candy.
• Suck a cherry or olive pit; or the rind of a lemon or lime.
• Drink plenty of water. If your system is not hydrated, it can cause dry mouth, headaches, fatigue, dry skin and bad breath. It is surprising that only 34 percent of Americans drink the recommended amount of eight 8 ounces glasses of water a day.

        Breathe through your nose and not mouth. This is the most effective method in avoiding a dry mouth.

        Lastly, avoid smoking, alcohol and coffee intake.
