Saliva is an essential substance, which is used to reduce food build up in the mouth and between teeth. It also counteracts or kills the accumulation of plaque and calculus surrounding the teeth. With out the presence of saliva, your mouth and teeth are forced to succumb to sever tooth decay and possibly irreversible gum problems and infections. As a result, your body is faced with the risks of high blood pressure that can lead to heart disease and consequently a possible heart attack.
