I use biotene but I really only use it in the morning and at night. During the day I seem to do ok with my drinks and if Im really yucky feeling, I'll swish with some salt/water. Not sure why that makes my mouth feel good but it doesn. No idea if it helps my dry mouth, might make it worse for all I know!

I do know that my dry mouth has gotten slightly worse the past 4-5 months. Most likely further raidation damage happening.
