Self-reported oral and general health related to xerostomia, hyposalivation, and quality of life among caries active younger adults.

Conclusion: Younger caries active adult patients reported significantly more xerostomia and hyposalivation compared to caries inactive patients. Xerostomia and hyposalivation were inversely related to perceptions of oral and general health, but not to quality of life. PMID: 31729277 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
