Salivary experts opinion
“The devices present a novel opportunity to enhance salivation in patients experiencing salivary hypofunction due

“I speak to dentists and physicians frequently and I am excited about being able to tell them about something new.
This is going to be so valuable for those patients that cannot tolerate secretagogue therapy. Congratulations on
a very exciting product. Thanks so much for your work for those patients with salivary gland hypofunction.”

"I believe many patients need such a device. Dentists don’t know how many will benefit from it because they

in the anamnesis sheet. Time has come…"
