Some people have the problem of releasing saliva while asleep.This problem can lead to embarrassment as one ends up wetting the pillow and mattress a problem that people around you can translate to poor hygiene.
However,here are some techniques that you can apply to counter this problem
Sleep on your back facing up
This problem mostly affects people who have the habit of sleeping on their sides, therefore sleeping facing the roof.This is a very effective method but requires you to be keen to ensure that you do not shift around and sleep sideways.
Breathe through the nose and not the mouth.
Drooling also occurs when one breathes through the mouth during sleep. Saliva is forced out when one exhales and flows out through the external sides of the mouth.Therefore,by breathing through the nose,no air passage is experienced in the mouth reducing fluid movement.
Reduce consumption of foods that increase rate of salivation.
Foods that increase the amount of salivation[hyper salivation] have a big role in the sleep drooling.This is because the amount of saliva in the mouth exceeds the required making it easy for the excess to flow out at any opportunity. Hypersalivation condition is triggered by intake of sugary foods and oral diseases.
