(1) Temporary Hyposalivation: (vLFkk;h vYiykjloz.k)

It occurs in:
(i) Emotional conditions like fear (Hk;)
(ii) Fever (cq[kkj)
(iii) Dehydration (futZyhdj.k)

(2) Permanent Hyposalivation: (LFkk;h vYiykjloz.k)

It occurs in:
(i) Obstruction of salivary duct (ykj xzfUFk esa vojks/k)
(ii) Paralysis of facial nerve (psgjs dh raf=dk dks ydok
