You Will Need
- Tart or sour candy
- Saliva
- Tongue flexibility
- Yawning (optional)
Steps
-
Step 1
Suck on candy
Suck on a piece of tart candy to stimulate saliva flow. Get a roll of tart fruit candy or other sour candy so you have plenty to practice with.
-
Yawning is also a good technique to generate saliva.
-
Step 2
Make an O
Make your mouth into a small O shape and take a deep breath in through your mouth. This will help saliva collect under your tongue.
-
Step 3
Position the tongue
Position the tip of your tongue on the roof of your mouth directly in the center and open your mouth wide.
-
Jut out your jaw so that it is slightly forward.
-
Step 4
Breathe again
Keep your tongue in position and breathe in again through your mouth to deepen the saliva pool.
-
Step 5
Flex tongue
Flex your tongue forward, keeping the tip locked to the roof of the mouth. The saliva should stream straight out or spray out in several directions.
-
The medical term for dry mouth is xerostomia. The condition can lead to gingivitis, tooth decay, and mouth infections.
