Xerostomia (Dry Mouth) – Market Outlook, Epidemiology, Competitive Landscape, and Market Forecast Report – 2023 To 2033
Xerostomia refers to the sensation of oral dryness, which can result from diminished saliva production. Insufficient salivary flow can lead to symptoms such as oral dryness, burning sensations, difficulty swallowing, and reduced or altered taste perception. Xerostomia can stem from various underlying causes, but it is most commonly observed as an adverse effect of certain medications due to radiation therapy targeting the head and neck region or in association with Sjogren syndrome. Numerous drugs have the potential to influence salivary gland function and elicit oral dryness, with the severity of symptoms dependent on the dosage and number of drugs consumed. A diverse array of drug classes have been correlated with xerostomia, including but not limited to anticholinergic agents, antidepressants and antipsychotics, diuretics, antihypertensive agents, sedatives and anxiolytics, muscle relaxants, analgesics, and antihistamines. Notably, these medications have reported incidence rates of xerostomia of 10% or more. Pilocarpine and cevimeline are pharmacological agents approved by the U.S. FDA for the management of xerostomia. These medications exert their effects by targeting muscarinic receptors and stimulating salivation. Xerostomia can adversely affect oral intake, leading to malnutrition, gingivitis, periodontitis, dental caries, halitosis, fungal infections (specifically candidiasis), and accelerated enamel erosion. Prolonged discomfort resulting from dry mouth can also contribute to symptoms of anxiety and depression.
- The prevalence of xerostomia in the general population of the United States varies widely, ranging from 0.9% to 64.8%. Among adults 65 years and older, an estimated 30% experience xerostomia, with the prevalence increasing to 40% in individuals older than 80.
