Salivix Dry Mouth pastilles 50 Pack

I bought these as I suffer from Burning Mouth Syndrome which frequently gives me a horrid, metallic taste in my mouth. Mint-flavoured sweets/pastilles are too highly-flavoured for my burning mouth but these pastilles are very mild yet still take away the metallic taste in my mouth. They are small enough to leave in my mouth to give me relief for quite some time before they disappear. I have ordered more and always keep them in my handbag now.

For dry mouth syndrome, normal breath fresheners, even when held in the gum, don’t last long enough (especially for exercise classes) and sugar-free gum spreads along the gumline and falls into small bits along the teeth embarrassingly. And these “confectionary” products don’t contain the essential xylitol, that is in salivix, which stimulates saliva production. Salivix is great for day time saliva stimulation, but I think you do need teeth to keep one in position between the gum and cheek. Parked between the gum and cheek at the back of the mouth, the pastille is unobtrusive, you can talk and exercise without having to be mindful of it and it doesn’t tend to fall out of the mouth unexpectedly and embarrassingly like breath fresheners and gum might during a conversation. Salivix pastilles are beige in colour and a firm soft in texture. Best to put the flat side against a molar (I go for top rearmost) and the rounded side against the cheek, otherwise they’re uncomfortable. They become sticky and remain in place remarkably well. One lasts around 2 hours for me, if held in the cheek. They are slightly tangy in taste - there’s no obvious flavouring mentioned on the box or in the list of ingredients. One thing I notice is that my tongue is no longer coated since using salivix, which indicates how well they’re working. Salivix isn’t really appropriate for night time, because they stimulate too much saliva when you’re body’s trying to dial down and they only last a small part of the night. For night time, I use a different xylitol product (there’s only one other otc product in the UK as far as I can see) which not only lasts longer but leaves the mouth moist for a while, even after it’s dissolved.

Keeps your mouth hydrated, essential for anyone who experiences ‘dry mouth’ and/or uses a C-PAP machine. I think that the taste is good and you can also buy a variant with fluoride.

Not a bad flavour but didn’t help with dry mouth at all

Great product which has a nice flavour. They have been effective and ok value for money. The pastilles are small and can easily stick to an area of your mouth to slowly dissolve. I keep them with me at all times and they are in a handy sized box.

Really good pastilles that help dry mouth symptoms.

No more use than an ordinary sweet and very expensive!

Good Product delivery time excellent
