The majority of babies are born with their baby, or primary teeth, already lying in wait under the gums. Babies generally start to cut their baby teeth beginning at 6 months, according to the American Dental Association. Primary teeth may continue to erupt until age 3.
Home Remedies: Chewing gum and adding sea salt to your diet could help moderate or control excess saliva. Starting your meal with a bitter or sour food will also stimulate your digestive system, in the case of dry mouth due to inadequate saliva production.
In some cases of dry mouth, the saliva glands are only partly affected and can be stimulated to make more saliva: Chewing sugar-free gum can help to increase the production and flow of saliva. Pilocarpine is a medicine which can stimulate salivary glands to make more saliva.
