Hello. Thank you for posting.

Dry mouth can occur when the glands in the mouth that make saliva are not working properly. Some common causes include nervousness, stress, certain medications, aging, cancer therapy (radiation/chemotherapy), and autoimmune disorders like Sjorgren's syndrome, smoking, and methamphetamine use.  What you describe is not typical symptoms associated with dry mouth. So mention this to your doctor.

If you're not producing enough saliva, you may notice these signs and symptoms all or most of the time:
dryness or a feeling of stickiness in your mouth
saliva that seems thick and stringy
bad breath
difficulty chewing, speaking and swallowing
dry or sore throat and hoarseness
dry or grooved tongue
a changed sense of taste
problems wearing dentures
