Biotene formulations are alcohol-free and gentle on the oral mucosa. They mimic the protective functions of natural saliva.

Expert insight & clinical research

Clinicians in the UK recognise that dry mouth poorly affects quality of life, sleep, speech and nutrition. Patients using multiple medications, undergoing cancer therapy or having autoimmune conditions must use saliva support as a key part of their oral health management. We recommend identifying reversible causes, maintaining rigorous daily oral hygiene and using specialised Biotene products.
