I seem to be generating excessive amounts of saliva to the point where I need a disposable cup to kinda drool it into every couple of minutes. This makes sleeping kinda hard and so I’m wondering is there a trick? I had to make a sort of makeshift bib out of a towel just to combat this last night and that allowed me to get a few hours but man was it uncomfortable. Any advice?

Edit: the excessive saliva finally went away last night. Appreciate all of your help

    The drool always (several extractions including wisdom) faded for me once the numbing wore off and I took the gauze out to sleep (you should not sleep with gauze in your mouth).

    You can google about this or ask your dentist if it persists more than a night or so.
