Dry mouth is extreme in many patients. As we know, the presence of saliva is crucial to the health of a mouth. The amazing thought of an actual saliva implant is a wondeful idea, in theory. In any event, if the procedure was relatively non-invasive, it could provide much relief for cancer patients and those caring for them.
