Description of Dryness in the mouth after radio therapy of head and neck cancer

Dry mouth, also called Xerostomia, is a condition in which your salivary glands do not make enough saliva to keep your mouth moist. Radiotherapy to the head and neck region often damages the salivary glands and causes varying degrees of dryness in the mouth. Recovery may take months to years.
