Abstract

The incidence of dry mouth complaint on enquiry was found to be 3.3% on average in a retrospective study of the records of 2500 patients who attended the Cork Dental Hospital. The lowest incidence (1.20--2.66%) was in the youngest age group studied (6--20) years. The incidence increased with age and was substantially higher, reaching 20% in elderly females. In all age groups there was a higher incidence in females. The results are compared with two other studies carried out in Scotland.
