Chewing gum can prevent tooth decay by promoting production of saliva which prevents bacteria build-up.
If it's sugar-free, yes. And it's a happy fact for me because we are chewing gum lovers. My daughters have misaligned teeth that's why my eldest is wearing braces. But both of my kids do not have tooth decay. And I realized maybe because I have this habit of always bringing gum packs in my bag.
Recently Xylitol invited us for an intimate meet-up of moms like me. And that was when I've learned all these dental benefits of sugar free chewing gums.
To summarize some of them, here are some bulletpoints:
1. Tooth decay can be prevented as early as when one is still a baby and that is when the mother takes good care of her teeth. Cavities can be transmitted because it's caused by bacteria. If you have tooth decay, don't make it a habit of chewing your baby's food and letting them eat it.
Fact: Mothers who regularly consumed Xylitol (a natural sweetener) for a two-year period from the birth of their child greatly reduced the chance of tooth decay in their children.
2. Sugar is one of the main tooth-decay causing substance and so, if you want to eat chewing gum, make sure that it is sugar-free.
Fact: Lotte uses Xylitol in its gums, which, unlike other artificial sweeteners such as aspartame and sucraloid, Xylitol has carbon atoms which doesn't cause cavities.
3. So that bacteria won't grow inside the mouth, a consistent flow of saliva is needed. The saliva keeps the teeth clean and the enamel of teeth stronger.
Fact: Chewing Lotte Xylitol gums boosts the production of saliva. I can attest to this because whenever I pop a Xylitol gum inside my mouth, I can feel my saliva oozing inside. That's why I liked this brand even before I attended its event. When my mouth is dry, I chew a Xylitol gum and my mouth is A ok after that.
4. Tooth decays can be reverted.
Fact: If you have minimal tooth decays already present, Lotte Xylitol may help you prevent that by increasing the saliva while you chew which in turn, remineralize your teeth.
