If you are having difficulty collecting saliva, here are a few recommendations.
\u2022 press the tip of your tongue against your teeth very gently.
\u2022 think about your favorite dessert or something sweet.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A film develops in your mouth and on your tongue at night. You are asked\nto rinse out your mouth to remove that film before collection. But if you\u2019ve\nalready completed the process of saliva collection, that\u2019s fine. <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
