When it comes to vaping, it is fair to say that, as a habit, it is much safer than smoking is. If you smoke, and you're looking for healthier alternative, then vaping is a good thing.

Vape contains far fewer carcinogens than cigarettes and other tobacco products do.  In fact, vaping contains no known carcinogens compared to tobacco, which contains more than 700. That should clue you in a little bit as to the seriousness of smoking and the reason why vaping is so much better for you.

Now, because vaping is much safer than smoking, this leads some people to assume that vaping is entirely free of problems. However, this is not strictly the case.  Vaping does have side effects for some people and these clearly need resolving if you want to take up vaping.

The biggest issue that people have with their vape is that it can cause problems in the mouth. In particular, it can cause dry mouth.  Dry mouth can cause a whole host of problems. It is the same issue as being overly dehydrated.

Now it doesn't matter what juicy vape, whether you vape a high VG juice, such as the 100% VG juice, or a medium PG:VG juice, such as Dinner Lady E Liquid, or a high PG juice. It is the act of vaping that leads to dry mouth, rather than the actual juice itself.

Some people may feel as if a particular juice is drying on their mouths. For example, some people find that lemon flavours have a sort of drying effect. Is probably something to do with the citrus/bitterness that gives the impression that it's absorbing more water and it is. This generally isn't the case, although everyone is different and it could be the case in some situations.

If you think that your dry mouth is caused by your juice, then try swapping juices just to see. It's unlikely to make a difference, but it can do under certain circumstances.

Why is it important to get rid of dry mouth?

A dehydrated mouth can cause many problems. Here are a list of the top causes of concern for  dry mouth:

• Dry mouth can cause bad breath
• Dry mouth can cause cavities because it  provides a breeding ground for plaque
• Dry mouth can cause sore  and scallops tongues,  including ulcers
• Dry mouth can lead to receding gum lines over time

Clearly, these issues can be quite significant over time. Receding gums, if left too long, can lead to the need for tooth extraction. That's both expensive and many people find it embarrassing too. Bad breath is also embarrassing.

The simple solution is clearly to make sure that you stay hydrated when vaping.  Make sure that you carry a water bottle around with you and that you take regular Sips. Chewing gum can also help to minimise the risk of cavities and keep your mouth hydrated. There are also special rehydration treatments for dry mouth, such as Xylimelts.  Xylimelts are very popular with vapours because they are so good at rehydrating you.
