dry mouth/mouth dryness


Explanation:
The mouth feels clammy or sticky because the mucosa lacks moisture.

You will often find "clammy mouth" in homeopathic texts. However in mainstream medical texts I would use "mouth dryness".

See also "cotton mouth" (colloquial).

Qu’est-ce que la Bouche Sèche?

La Bouche Sèche, ou Xérostomie, est une sensation anormale de sécheresse buccale, souvent due à une réduction de la production salivaire. C’est un problème courant qui affecte des millions de personnes dans le monde et dont l’incidence augmente.

Symptômes de la Bouche Sèche:

Sensation de sécheresse et d’inconfort buccal
Difficultés à parler
Difficultés à manger et à avaler
Mauvaise haleine
Altération du goût
Inconfort en cas de prothèse dentaire
Langue brûlante
Lèvres craquelées
Une réduction de la production de salive – ou Bouche Sèche – peut avoir un impact négatif sur la qualité de vie.

Toux due à une gorge sèche et irritée
Devoir boire de l’eau à une fréquence excessive
Sommeil interrompu et fatigue due au manque de repos
Peur d’avoir mauvaise haleine
Manque d’assurance en société
Sensation de bouche pâteuse au réveil le matin
Oasis peut changer votre vie. Sérieusement!

En remplaçant cette sensation de Bouche Sèche et pâteuse par une sensation d’hydratation rafraîchissante, vous regagnerez confiance en vous, ce qui est non négligeable. Vous arriverez à parler plus facilement. Votre haleine sera plus fraîche. Et vous pourrez à nouveau vous délecter des mets les plus savoureux. Sans oublier que du point de vue de la santé bucco-dentaire, Oasis® hydrate les tissus buccaux, nettoie la bouche et élimine les résidus alimentaires.

Reference: dry or coated?

Reference information:
Personally I (and many others on Google) associate bouche pâteuse with that "morning after" effect, i.e. dryness. Others still associate it with excessive physical activity, hence dehydration and dryness of the mouth.

But a "medical" definition suggests it's "coated".

Fig., Avoir la bouche, la langue pâteuse, Avoir la bouche, la LANGUE COMME EMPÂTÉE D'UNE SALIVE ÉPAISSE.
On dit la BOUCHE PÂTEUSE quand la LANGUE EST COUVERTE D'UN ENDUIT MUQUEUX qui en émousse la sensibilité. Cela rend la bouche pâteuse.
