I’VE HEARD THAT XYLITOL IS GOOD FOR TEETH.
IS THIS TRUE?

Recommended by dentists (ADA, AAPD)

Xylitol has recently been identified by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) to help reduce childhood tooth decay.

Dental cavities occur when natural bacteria present in the mouth feed on the sugars we eat which remain on the teeth.

These bacteria multiply and produce acids that attack the teeth and form cavities, or decay.

The bacteria are unable to feed on xylitol and are essentially starved and cannot grow.

Studies show that Xylitol dental benefits include effectively decrease acid-producing bacteria by up to 90%.

Xylitol also keeps the bacteria from adhering to teeth which decreases plaque.

Continuous use of Xylitol creates a desirable environment for healthy mouth bacteria and an undesirable environment for unhealthy plaque bacteria. After 5 weeks of eating at least 6 grams of Xylitol each day, sticky plaque bacteria will no longer be found on teeth.

After 6 months of continuous Xylitol use, these bacteria will be undetectable in saliva, on teeth and on the tongue. You can get started today with Mommygom Xyitol Candy.
