Relieve Cannabis-Related Dry Mouth
Medical and recreational marijuana use may cause irritating dry mouth symptoms, also known as cotton mouth in the marijuana community. Studies have shown that compounds in cannabis bind to cannabinoid receptors in the salivary glands. This causes the salivary glands to dysregulate and results in dry mouth symptoms.
Cannabis and Dry Mouth
According to the American Dental Association, cannabis use can cause xerostomia, the medical term for dry mouth. Other causes of xerostomia include systemic health diseases, medications, cancer therapies, and more.
Xerostomia may lead to oral health conditions affecting one’s overall oral health. Some complications include:
- Difficulty wearing oral prostheses
- Dry or fissured tongue
- Dental caries
- Plaque accumulation
- Gingivitis
- Periodontitis
