chewing gum for teeth

Products good for the teeth are produced using ingredients to sweeten that can not be fermented by bacteria in the mouth.

This category includes intense sweeteners such as saccharin, cyclamate, acesulfame-K and aspartame, and sugar substitutes such as isomalt, sorbitol and xylitol.
The sugarless gum use these sweeteners. The sweet taste and chewing stimulate salivary flow, contributing to the prevention of caries.

These gums can contain minerals such as calcium, phosphate and fluoride to improve dental repair process. Some studies have reported that sugar-free gum after a meal consumed accelerate the cleanup of debris and reduce the rate of caries development in children.
Products “friends” of the teeth have to pass specific tests to obtain the approval of “safe for teeth.”
