Oracoat XyliMelts Dry Mouth Relief Discs with Xylitol, 230 Count

Xerostomia, commonly known as dry mouth, is a condition in which the mouth does not produce enough saliva to keep itself moist. Saliva is essential for protecting the mouth from infection, maintaining cleanliness, and neutralizing acids to prevent plaque build-up and tooth decay. This condition affects approximately 20% of people worldwide and can have a considerable impact on overall health and quality of life. Symptoms of dry mouth include tooth decay, disrupted sleep, a dry tongue, bad breath, difficulty chewing and swallowing, cracked lips, and dehydration.

XyliMelts are effective in combating dry mouth due to their key ingredient, xylitol, a naturally occurring sweet carbohydrate found in raspberries, corn, oats, and other plants. Xylitol is resistant to digestion by harmful mouth bacteria, which are typically responsible for tooth decay, gum disease, and infections. Additionally, xylitol can stimulate saliva production and reduce the risk of tooth decay when it lingers in the mouth. Clinical studies suggest that releasing a continuous concentration of xylitol over time in the mouth can maximize its benefits. XyliMelts utilize adhering disc technology to slowly release the right concentration of xylitol over time, providing hours of relief by coating, moisturizing, and increasing saliva flow, particularly during sleep when dry mouth is most problematic.

Dry mouth and bad breath can stem from various causes, including medication use, cancer treatment, poor dental health, illness, infections, and external agents such as food or tobacco. One common cause of dry mouth and bad breath is the side effects of medications used to treat various conditions.

XyliMelts for dry mouth are natural, containing no animal products, corn, protein, color, or preservatives. They are non-acidic with a safe pH of 8, providing effective dry mouth relief without harming teeth. XyliMelts can be used day or night and may last 4-8 hours between applications, though results may vary. Additionally, the sweet flavor of xylitol stimulates saliva flow and freshens breath, providing a pleasant experience for individuals seeking relief from dry mouth.
