Primary outcomes
- Sialorrhea Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) — Before and 120 min after treatment administration
Saliva buccal assessment was evaluated by an VAS scale before, and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 min after treatment administration. Subjects were asked to rate how much saliva they perceived in their buccal cavity on an unmarked 0 to 10 cm line, higher scores meaning greater perceived buccal saliva levels.
