Abstract

Saliva is an important body fluid that helps in digestion of food and facilitation of speech and swallowing, and protects the oral tissues by its antimicrobial and lubricating properties. Subjective oral dryness, or xerostomia, is usually associated with a decreased salivary flow rate (hyposalivation) or psychological factors. The common causes of reduction in salivary flow rates are dehydration, medications, head and neck radiotherapy, and specific diseases. The patient with xerostomia who has salivary gland hypofunction is at risk for many oral complications and it is critical to institute appropriate symptomatic treatment and preventive measures. This paper has reviewed evaluation methods of xerostomia and practical and contemporary measures for management of the patients with dry mouth.

Abstract

Tükürük, sindirim, konuşma ve yutma işlemlerinin kolaylaştırılması ve antimikrobiyal ve kayganlaştırıcı etkisi ile oral dokuların korunmasında görev alan önemli bir vücut sıvısıdır. Subjektif ağız kuruluğu veya kserostomi genellikle azalmış tükürük akımı ve daha nadir olarak da psikolojik faktörler ile alakalıdır. Tükürük akımının azalmasına neden olan başlıca sebepler dehidratasyon, bazı ilaçlar, baş ve boyun bölgesine uygulanan radyoterapi ve Sjögren sendromu gibi bazı özel sistemik hastalıklardır. Tükürük bezi hipofonksiyonuna sahip hastalar birçok oral patoloji yönünden risk altındadırlar ve uygun semptomatik ve önleyici yaklaşımlar ile tedavi edilmeleri önemlidir. Bu makalede ağız kuruluğunun değerlendirilmesi, semptomların giderilmesi ve önlenmesi güncel literatürler eşliğinde anlatılmaktadır.
