What cause Phelgm with Parkinson's ?

Dear Doctor,
I do not have saliva as told by my dentist but thick, dry and sticky phelgm (without smell,white in colour )produce in my throat.
I am fortunate that my phlegm could come out from my throat and do not having difficulty breathing . However,it irritates me in public and I feel uncomfortable.
I don't have difficulty food swallow neither I have running nose.
As my phelgm irritates me I have a cough occassionally
I gargle with salt water several time a day, but it comes again. Kindly advise;-
Is it part of syndrome of Parkinson's disease?
Is it a chronic illness?
What is the treatment to clear the phelgm from the throat?
Thanks
