Hello Sir
Greetings of the day. Dry mouth is seen due to various reasons such as any medication you might be taking that affects the salivary flow, a stone in your salivary duct or due to any other systemic problems. Consult a physician and a dentist to know the exact reason for the dry mouth. In the meantime, keep yourself well hydrated and you can chew on sugar free chewing gums for increased salivation.
