so...what's better the gum or spray....and will they work the same...not sure i wanna chew gum all day....but my buds need a wake up call...lol...saw this on tv a while back..and forgot about it til i saw this...:)

I didn't know they made a spray until people started commenting on this thread. I'm going to get some when I get home because, like you, I'd rather not chew gum that much. I hear it works great!

I am a dental assisting student and we have recently covered what dry mouth does to the teeth. Saliva production is our body's way of self washing the mouth. Dry mouth can cause the bacteria in your mouth to multiply thus increasing the acid that they produce and increasing the probability of tooth decay.

If you are dealing with dry mouth, please, please, don't suck on sugary candy...this will only speed up the process above. Take time to do proper oral care as often as possible throughout the day (this serves two purposes....actually clean out the bacteria AND moisturize the mouth). Gum with xylitol in it can help as well because the xylitol inhibits bacterial action within the mouth.

HTH and that I did not insult anybody.

Ya didn't insult anybody. Actually it was very reassuring hearing the same thing from a professional.

had to get the mouth wash...didn't have the spray or gum....so if i drink anything after does that defeat the purpose...or will it still work?

I'm constantly drinking something and I think it still works. Probably works better if you don't drink for a while after using it but the label says it can be used as needed so I rinse, vape, drink, vape, vape, vape, drink, vape, vape, vape, vape, vape, rinse, vape, drink, drink, etc. etc. lol I just know that it really does work. I don't like to chew gum because it messes with my vaping flavors. Biotene really wakes up my taste buds and clears my palate so I can maximize my vaping frenzies.:?:

Good point Classwife. Water is best, but definitely stay away from the sugary soda pop as that will add to the insult that the teeth have to cope with. BTW---bottled juices aren't much better as they contain as much (if not more) sugar than pop. If you can't stand water and want to drink juice instead, try watering it down some. You may have to go slow with this process, though as it will change the consistancy and flavor of the juice.

Biotene was suggested in another thread also a few weeks back. I guess this girl was getting tired of me complaining about my dry mouth:p I never had a problem with dry mouth and vaping(little over 7 months) until I began to use more pg based liquid. The Biotene (and I got t.p., m.w., gum and gel) helped immensely and cured that spike tongue and dry roof mouth. Great product!:)
