List of Lab Tests For Dry mouth

How will these tests help?

The group of tests we are running will help us understand why you are suffering from dry mouth. This is also known as xerostomia, cotton mouth, and pasties

The tests can be split into two groups; the first group consists of saliva tests, blood chemistry tests, complete blood count (CBC), thyroid function tests, immunoglobulin A (IgA) tests, vitamin B12 and folate tests, vitamin D tests, and anti-Sjogrens syndrome antibody tests. These tests will help us detect any underlying medical condition that may be causing your dry mouth

The second group of tests includes glucose tolerance tests and kidney function tests. These tests will help us understand how your body is processing the medications you are taking for your dry mouth, as well as how well your body is functioning overall.
