How can you CURE: Sjogren's syndrome?

How can you cure a 79 years old's Sjogren's syndrome who had DRY MOUTH for around 2 years.

if you know any good cure (or treatments) to Sjogren's syndrome PLEASE TELL ME!!

also if you know a good doctor (in JAPAN if possible) for Sjogren's syndrome and it's treatments and cure PLEASE TELL ME.

My mother has this. There is no cure but you can treat the symptoms. For dry mouth, my mother carries losenges, mints, etc. with her. She also almost always has a bottle of water with her too.

There are also over-the-counter salivas and medications that can be prescribed for dry mouth. For more information that can help with treatment go here:
