Biotene Dental Products Biotene Oralbalance Dry Mouth Moisturizer Gel

Not as great as the company website makes it out to be. More like a lubricant than an actual saliva-stimulating product.

Excellent

Good product

By far, the best gel for dry mouth. It is very effective for post-radiation side effects.

this product does what it says it does, but it doesnt have a nice taste and it tends to leave a sticky feeling inside the mouth which is rather unpleasent. maybe adding some mint flavouring to the product at the point of manufacture would help

I was just using the Biotene mouth wash for dry mouth. The mouth wash worked ok but you have to get up at night to use it. I found this Biotene Oralbalance and it works great. If you wake up a night with a dry mouth, you can just squeeze a tiny amount of this in your mouth, swish it around and go back to sleep. I'm very satisfied with the Biotene oral balance.

Didn’t really work for me. I bought it because my mouth becomes dry overnight while wearing my CPAP. Xylimelt lozenges work great. They stick to your gum and cause you to salivate for several hours.

I've used the entire suite of Biotene products during and after my radiation treatment for head and neck cancer. The treatment has the nasty side affect of severely damaging your salivary glands. Three months out of treatment, I'm still producing very little saliva, and I use the Biotene toothpaste to brush my teeth, Biotene rinse to provide an initial layer of moisture to my mouth, the Biotene gel for sleeping (up to 4 - 5 hours now without waking up to drink something because my throat is so dry), and previously used the Biotene spray when mobile. The spray was recalled for a labeling error, and I'm still awaiting its return.The local stores were out of stock on the gel, and I simply can't go without it at this point, so my fallback was to order online. The price delivered was a bit less than all the stores except Walmart.

On the plus side, this product does what it promises. (BTW, on the Biotene web site they say that the oral rinse isn't long-lasting enough to provide hydration over-night.) However, the taste is horrible and lasts for hours.
