Chewing Gum

Studies have shown that chewing gum can have an indirect, positive effect on dental hygiene. Chewing gum after meals helps to stimulate the production of saliva and overall salivary flow. Saliva helps to wash away and neutralise the acid produced by bacteria in plaque. This acid is responsible for dental decay and bad breath. Chewing gum can also help relieve pressure in your ears and sinuses by encouraging jaw movement.

There are, however, a number of sweeteners that help prevent cavities and reduce the acid production in your mouth. Xylitol, a natural sweetener found in many fruits and vegetables, tastes and looks like sugar but without the negative side effects. Chewing gum that contains high levels of xylitol fights cavities and dental decay by creating an unwelcome environment for bacteria. Xylitol is one of bacteria's natural enemies - in a xylitol-rich environment, bacteria lose their ability to stick to teeth and are therefore unable to colonise and turn into plaque.

On the other hand, chewing gum typically contains a sweetener of some type. Chewing gum that contains sugar, for example, can be harmful to your teeth.    The sugar in the gum fuels the bacteria that produce acid in your mouth.

Spry Sugar-Free Chewing Gum, sweetened with the purest pharmaceutical grade  xylitol only, comes in spearmint, peppermint, fruit and cinnamon flavours. Spry xylitol gum is available in "blister packs" (each contains 20 packs of 10 pieces each), or you can purchase a bottle of 100 pieces. The makers of Spry Chewing Gum, Xlear Inc., offer a variety of dental products known as the Spry Dental Defense System, that will dramatically increase your oral health.
