Research Abstract |
Salivary gland hypofunction leads to severe disorders of oral function, such as disturbances in taste, mastication, swallowing and speaking. Management of dry mouth is necessary for a higher quality of life, but dry mouth increases in young subjects. We investigated suppression factor of saliva production and improvement treatment for dry mouth by analyzing the relationship between the hypofunction and stress hormones or food habits. The salivary gland massage in addition to the balanced diet helps improve the hypofunction.
