I found it at WalMart in the pharmacy area.= .. it's usually hanging on those strips in the isles.. around the toothpaste.. the = gum is around $1.69 for 12 pieces and then they have toothpaste and mouthwash. = I found out that how lucky I am.. lol... not only does the FM cause dry mou= th, but 4 of the 8 medications I am taking also causes dry mouth. The dentist t= old me that is why my teeth have been so bad.. fillings aren't staying, etc. Wi= th dry mouth, you don't have the normal bacteria you need in your saliva.. so you = can get canker sores easily... doggie breath...rotten teeth... gingivitis, = etc. the gum, toothpaste and mouthwash help with that bacteria. He also told me to use a regular floride mouthwash before I go to bed. Every day is an experience with FM isn't it? Connie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
