Dry mouth, also known as xerostomia, is a condition in which patients suffer from a dry, uncomfortable feeling in their mouth due to reduced saliva production. Saliva is essential to moisten and clean our mouths, and also prevents oral infection by reducing bacteria. If left untreated, dry mouth syndrome can increase ones risk of gum disease, tooth decay and other serious dental conditions.
If you find yourself suffering from symptoms of dry mouth syndrome, including frequent thirst, a dry feeling in your mouth and throat, or difficulty speaking and swallowing, get in touch with TrueCare Dentistry. Dr. Patrick Lawrence can help you find a treatment for your dry mouth by talking through your lifestyle choices and evaluating various factors that may be contributing to your oral discomfort.
It is possible that a medication may be the cause of your dry mouth, and if so, our Raleigh-area dentists will work with you to adjust your dosage or find an alternative medication. They can also prescribe an oral rinse to help improve your saliva flow. In the meantime, drinking plenty of water, breathing through your nose rather than your mouth, and chewing on sugar-free gum can help alleviate dryness in your mouth.
Dr. Patrick Lawrence offers treatment for a variety of common dental problems, including dry mouth, toothaches and more. Our practice proudly serves patients in Cary, Raleigh, Apex, Morrisville, Fuquay-Varina, Durham and the surrounding area.

My experiences with this dental office have been GREAT which is A LOT to say when discussing going to the dentist. Dr. Lawrence and his staff are very thorough and caring with both me and my children. Dr. Lawrence has a calm and professional style that is perfect for a dentist. He takes the time to explain what needs to be done and provides valuable advice. It is not easy to find a great dentist for the entire family. I highly recommend Dr. Lawrence and his staff for both children and adults.

I have been coming the this practice since moving here at age 14, now 41 years old my husband and 3 kids all see Dr. Lawrence and Dr. G. I switched dentists once 15 years ago because of a brief insurance change and went running back to Dr. Lawrence. They are so far above the rest. I will never go anywhere else. The staff is so friendly and wonderful and you truly feel cared for. They are top notch in every way.

My granddaughter chipped her front tooth while visiting from the west coast. Family & Cosmetic Dentistry made time to see her the morning I called and was able to repair her front tooth 'as good as new'. Dr. G was wonderful with my granddaughter and she can now start middle school with a full smile. Thanks so much for the wonderful and generous treatment for my grandchild.

I have been using this dentistry since it opened in 1990. Over time, the dentists have changed, some of the hygienists have changed, and there has been a small amount of turnover in the support staff. From the beginning, this business was run on building a personal relationship with their patients. Always ahead of the game with technology, and always professional and knowledgeable, the past AND current dentists have put me at ease, whether I was in for a routine cleaning for for a crown. I always get a friendly greeting when I walk in the door, and enjoy a nice chat with the staff when I leave. I simply cannot see myself using any other dental office. I moved to Pinehurst, NC and continued to drive the 75 min to keep this office. I now live in Clayton and it is a 50 min drive, yet I make it gladly.
