Dry mouth isn't just uncomfortable it's clinically significant.
It is estimated that 60% of older adults report symptoms associated with dry mouth, with prevalence even higher in polypharmacy patients, oncology patients, and patients with diabetes. That's over 13 milion people.
Reduced salivary flow can increase risk of tooth decay, erosion, mouth infection, bad breath, and even affect quality of life-making early recognition and management essential in dental education.
At Oralieve, we're committed to informing dental schools about our specially-formulated dry mouth relief solutions designed to support dry mouth relief and comfort for patients who need them most.
We have a range of resources to help and support dentists and dental students:
-Downloadable guides and videos about dry mouth and our products
-CPD distance learning modules to get well equipped with the management of dry mouth and its complications
-Access to Professional Educators who can provide free online or in-person educational sessions
-Samples for patients
We believe future clinicians should graduate confident in managing dry mouth across diverse patient groups from orthodontic patients to more complex patient groups.
Because managing dry mouth isn't optional - it's part of comprehensive oral care.
