Xylitol:
A naturally occurring sugar alcohol, that is not alcoholic but reduces oral bacteria’s ability to form a
cid, is harvested from many commonly eaten vegetables. Xylitol itself cannot be used by the bacteria in your mouth to form acid. It tastes great and is easily found in many of the Trident gums available anywhere. We recommend kids chew sugar free gum as a substitute for sweets during the day to benefit from the following: to reduce their overall sugar consumption, neutralized mouth acids (gum is basic), stimulate the flow of their own saliva, and it tastes good!
