This wonderfully flavorful gum is sugar free and sweetened exclusively with xylitol. Epic Xylitol Gum contains 1.06 grams of xylitol per piece of gum! That means only 6 pieces per day will give you the recommended minimum of 6 grams needed to protect the teeth of those at high risk for cavities.
These 1000-piece bags are an excellent value and work perfectly in the Antique Style Gum Dispenser. It's a fun way to encourage xylitol gum use in your home or office. Epic gum is also packaged in convenient jars and 12-piece blister boxes.
TMJ patients avoiding gum chewing may prefer Xylitol Mints, Toothpaste, Oral Rinse and Dental Floss as alternatives to gum as part of a daily xylitol routine.
Dental Benefits of Xylitol Use
Along with proper dental hygiene, xylitol can reduce the risk of dental caries and plaque. Xylitol-sweetened products, such as chewing gums and mints, increase salivary flow, preventing dry mouth and aiding in repair of damaged tooth enamel.
"With xylitol use, the quality of the bacteria in the mouth changes and fewer and fewer decay-causing bacteria survive on tooth surfaces. Less plaque forms and the level of acids attacking the tooth surface is lowered." California Dental Association
Experts who have studied the effects of xylitol on teeth recommend:
-
Daily intake of 6 grams of xylitol for patients at high risk for cavities
-
Use of xylitol products that actively stimulate saliva, such as xylitol gum
-
Distribution of the daily intake over at least three occasions (e.g. – after meals)
-
Use of 100% xylitol-sweetened products
