Hi everyone.My Gp is not very approachable and I have quite a few things going on at the moment and need your 'recommendations for the following:
Toothpaste& Oral Gels (SLS-Free Only)
Alcohol-Free Mouthwashes
Lip Emollients & Skin Barriers
Saliva Stimulants (Xylitol-Based)
Hi Mick,
I don't have personal experience of the products but obviously have experience of dry mouth and all I am prescribed is a mouthwash which I do twice a day it's one of the cheap products on prescription I'd just look or speak with a Pharmacist and they will give it you, an excellent resourse for mouth etc problems is a charity called Swallows, they have great resources and free samples

I'd keep pestering your GP and your local consultant at your treatment hospital or speech therapist department at the hospital
Take care, Tony
