My dentist asked me a while back if I get dry mouth at night. I never used to, and usually drooled at night. He said drooling is good. Now I have to take a blood pressure pill at night that has a tendency to dry your mouth out. Sometimes I wake up with a sore throat and very dry tongue, and sometimes my tongue is stuck to the roof of my mouth. I know I snore because I have a deviated septum, and have to use a nasal strip every night.
Did the dentist ask if you ate anything at night?
Because Urban Legend states that one eats an average of 8 spiders in a night.
(Not entirely true and not entirely false either).
It’s okay to laugh, you can do it!
Masks have always been associated with dry mouth in the long term use of being worn. This is nothing new. Those who are more susceptible to having dry mouth through medication or other reasons will get dry mouth when wearing a mask in the long term.
Try a rinse for dry mouth like Biotene, who also has a dry mouth oral spray.
My hygienist said she could tell I probably breathe through my mouth at night, then I later noticed she was right.
