What causes dry mouth (xerstomia)?

Xerostomia, or dry mouth as it is commonly called, occurs when there is minimal or no saliva created naturally in the mouth. Dry mouth can be a consequence of medical treatment that damages the salivary glands (such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy, a symptom of Sjögren’s Syndrome (an immune disorder that causes eye and oral dryness) or as a result of taking medications that affect the production of saliva.
Not all the reasons for oral drynessare fully understood. However, whatever the cause the oral discomfort and pain associated with dry mouth can be naturally treated with SaliPen!

Can I get lasting results with SaliPen?

SaliPen has been the subject of 14 clinical trials worldwide. Results show that SaliPen’s innovative electro-stimulation design improves the condition of dry mouth for sufferers in the short and long term.Using the device for just 1-6 minutes a day, 3-5 times per day has been shown to reverse and even eliminate the condition entirely in some sufferers.
SaliPen is unique in that it encourages the body to start producing its own saliva again, replacing ineffective and costly medications and rinses.

How does SaliPen’s ‘electro-stimulation’ technology work… and does ithurt?

SaliPen improves the condition of oral dryness using innovative electro-stimulation technology. The easy-to-use SaliPen is fitted with tiny electrodes powered by batteries stored in the handle of the device. Once the device is inserted into the mouth and under the tongue the electrodes deliver a tiny charge to the salivary glands. This charge is responsible for encouraging under-producing salivary glands to begin working again, or in the case of damaged glands, to repair them. While the idea of electrodes may sound uncomfortable, be assured, there is absolutely no pain or discomfort when using SaliPen. The electrodes are so gentle as to be undetectable when using SaliPen. SaliPen is completely safe and pain free!

How often should I replace my SaliPen?

There’s no need to replace your SaliPen!

And best of all, SaliPen can go wherever you do – its compact, discreet design means you can pop it in your bag and travel with it anywhere!

How often should I use SaliPen to get results?

You should enjoy results from Salipen immediately, but our research has shown that ongoing use of the device is linked to even greater results. Because SaliPen uses electro-stimulation technology, the device is actively ‘re-educating’ the salivary glands to produce more of their own saliva. Therefore the more you are able to use the device the better your results may be. Our research shows that using the device anywhere from 1-6 minutes, 3-5 times a day can drastically improve oral dryness.
