Summary

Xerostomia affects at least a quarter of the population. This prevalence is increased in postmenopausal women and people over 65 years of age. Associated with age are systemic diseases such as Sjögren's Syndrome, diabetes, Parkinson's disease or cancer. It handicaps the patient in his social life, but also in terms of his well-being by the consequences it generates in the oral cavity. This dryness may be the consequence of taking certain medications, head and neck radiotherapy, but also being a symptom of an underlying pathology whose screening will allow early treatment and avoid complications. Today, no single therapeutic solution is enough and patients are waiting for new therapeutic innovations in this area. This study proposes to evaluate the tolerance of an adhesive film containing prebiotics by comparing it to a placebo control film.
