Excessive liquid saliva from the mouth. It is made up of a number of tiny salivary glands inside the mouth, including the parotid glands on either side of the jaw in front of the ear, the submandibular on both sides below the mouth, and the sublingual glands on the two sides below the pocket.
Half to one and a half liters of saliva per day is used to clean and disinfect food and germs stuck in the mouth. Saliva helps in digestion of food, keeping the mouth slippery and moist, swallowing food properly, protecting the mouth from frictional wounds of the teeth, eliminating bad breath and many other things. It feels uncomfortable if saliva secretion is more or less. Normal oral health is at risk.

So if it is reduced, the risk of infection also increases. Drinking less water reduces saliva secretion due to dehydration due to various reasons. It can also be caused by side effects of high blood pressure medications, antihistamines, antidepressants, chemotherapy. Breathing through the mouth with the nose closed, the habit of sleeping with the mouth open at night, uncontrolled diabetes, fear or panic also reduces salivation.
