When there is an infection, it disrupts the immune system and this leads to the inability to control the body’s response to infection. If you have dry mouth, this can also affect the immune response. Thus, you may be vulnerable to certain infections.

If you have dry mouth you have more risk to get a cold or the common cold. The common cold and the common cold sufferers both knows that they can spread the disease if they are unable to fight infection. The common cold can be transferred to another person when there is a shared area.

If you have a dry mouth you can also be susceptible to bad breath. This is because bacteria that are produced by an infection in your mouth and in your throat can travel into your lungs and become airborne. There, they will be used in food that you eat or in medicine that you receive. So you may be less likely to have a bad breath if you have good oral hygiene.

The reason why the common cold can be transferred from one person to the other is that the virus circulates freely within the mouth. The mouth is a very good place for the virus to be able to pass from one person to another.

What is the solution to keep me from catching a cold?

There are a number of ways that you can keep yourself from catching a cold. Firstly you have to make sure that you have proper dental hygiene. You have to make sure that your teeth and your gums are healthy. If you have bad teeth and gums then your immune system is going to be challenged and thus it will be harder for you to fight infection.

You should visit your dentist every 6 months and have your teeth cleaned and have your teeth polished. The last thing you should do is to delay your visit by any means possible.

The only way that you can keep yourself from catching a cold is to make sure that your dental health is top notch. This means that you have to visit your dentist regularly so that you can have your teeth and gums properly cleaned and your cavities filled.

The next way that you can keep yourself from catching a cold is by making sure that you have proper hygiene before going to bed. Make sure that you don’t sleep with your mouth wide open.

I know that some people find that it is very comfortable to sleep with their mouth wide open. But do not go by that method. Your mouth is full of nooks and crannies where the cells of your mouth are going to come in contact with the outer walls of your throat. If you sleep with your mouth wide open then the cells of your mouth are going to be exposed to the elements. If you keep your mouth closed then the cells of your mouth are going to be moist and moist cells are not friendly to germs.

As a result when you open your mouth in the morning your mouth will be full of germs. Another tip that I have is to drink lots of water. The cells of your mouth are very resistant to the elements and they need moisture in order to stay alive.

The next tip that I have is to brush your teeth thoroughly. The cells of your mouth are full of nooks and crannies and you need to make sure that you are making sure that you brush your teeth thoroughly.

The third way that I have is to maintain good oral hygiene at home. This means that you need to make sure that you are avoiding foods that are going to aggravate the condition. One of the causes of the cold sore condition is the presence of sugars. And by avoiding sugars the condition of the mouth will be improved.

So those were the ways in which you can keep yourself from catching a cold. Remember that you need to visit your dentist every month in order to keep yourself healthy.
