Your mouth produces up to 1.5 liters of saliva each day, and this is not just a random figure—it’s a scientifically established fact, confirmed through clinical studies and physiology research.

This constant flow of saliva is essential for maintaining oral health. It keeps your mouth moist, helps you speak and swallow, begins the digestion of carbohydrates, and even protects your teeth by neutralizing acids and supplying minerals that strengthen enamel.
Saliva also contains natural antimicrobial agents that fight harmful bacteria.
When saliva flow is reduced—as in dry mouth—it can lead to bad breath, tooth decay, infections, and discomfort.
So, saliva isn't just spit—it's one of the most powerful, protective fluids in your body.

This is called Fissured tongue, also known as lingua plicata or scrotal tongue, is a benign condition that affects the top surface of the tongue. It is characterized by deep grooves or fissures on the tongue, which may vary in number and depth. The condition is typically painless and does not cause any serious health problems.

The exact cause of fissured tongue is not fully understood, but it is believed to be related to genetics, age, and certain medical conditions, such as Down syndrome, Sjogren's syndrome, and psoriasis.

In most cases, fissured tongue does not require any treatment. However, good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing the tongue and teeth twice a day and regular dental check-ups, can help prevent bacterial infections and bad breath. In rare cases, if the fissures become infected, a dentist may prescribe an antifungal or antibiotic medication.

If you are concerned about your tongue's appearance or have any symptoms, such as pain or discomfort, it is always best to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
