The drooling in the mouth at night may be caused by endocrine system disorders, neurological disorders or obstructive sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome.
1. Endocrine system disorders: if there are endocrine system diseases, such as diabetes, due to endocrine system disorders, will make the salivary glands in the oral and maxillofacial region also appear to be disrupted, which will lead to sleep at night with a lot of saliva in the mouth.
2. Neurological disorders: If there are cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, resulting in neurological disorders, it may lead to abnormalities and disorders in the peripheral nervous system’s regulation of the salivary glands as well as their commands, which may lead to hypersalivation at night.
3. Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome: If there is obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, the patient usually sleeps with his mouth open when he breathes, which will easily lead to disorders of the oral and maxillary system, and may cause corresponding secretion disorders of the salivary glands, such as parotid glands, sublingual glands, and submandibular glands, which will lead to drooling in bed at night.
It is recommended to go to a regular hospital to get a clear diagnosis, and then use the appropriate solution according to the situation.
