Q: Is chewing sugar-free gum good for my teeth?

A: Chewing sugar-free gum can stimulate saliva production, which helps rinse away food particles and acids. Some varieties also contain xylitol, an ingredient that may help reduce cavity-causing bacteria. However, gum should never replace brushing and flossing.

Our St. Albans, VT dentists share more more about oral health and chewing gum at https://www.dbdentalcarevt.com/1293686-getting-to-the-bottom-of-chewing-gum-myths/.

Did you know that saliva plays a major role in protecting your teeth?

Saliva helps wash away food particles, neutralize acids, and support healthy enamel. When the mouth becomes dry, the risk of cavities and bad breath can increase significantly. A healthy smile starts with a healthy oral environment.
