Dry Mouth — Why It Matters for Your Teeth — With Lily, Our LS ToothBuddy

Saliva protects your teeth every day. Lily, our LS ToothBuddy, explains why dry mouth raises your cavity risk, why it's often just a medication side effect, and simple ways to manage it, in under a minute.

Here's What's Going On

Saliva rinses away food, calms acid, and helps rebuild your enamel every day.

When your mouth runs dry, your teeth lose that protection and cavities become more likely.

Dry mouth is very often just a side effect of common medicines, not something you caused.

Sipping water often, chewing sugar-free gum, and avoiding tobacco can all help.

If it lasts a long time, it deserves a proper check, not just more water.
