We’re Only Allowed To Chew Xylitol Bubblegum

Chewing gum and blowing bubbles is so much fun. The bigger the bubble gets the more fun it is.

Regular gum is full of sugar and well sugar is really not so much fun. So what’s a gum lover to do?

To keep those bubbles coming a great alternative is chewing gum with Xylitol.

What Makes Xylitol Gum Better?

Everyone’s mouth contains bacteria and some bacteria really like sugar. These are the bacteria that cause cavities. But these bacteria so not like Xylitol. So Xylitol is a great alternative because of this plus it helps produce more saliva and keep everything moist and moving around and as an added bonus gives you minty fresh breath with no added sugar.

Sounds Good, Any Other Tips?

As with all good things moderation is key for maximum enjoyment. Remember to Brush (2 Minutes 2X’s A Day) and floss before brushing every night.

As a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist with over ten years of experience practicing Pediatric Dentistry, I understand that parents and caregivers are in need for information to care for their children's oral health. You may not have your normal lines of communication open or you cannot easily call or visit your child’s Dentist and obtain answers to your questions. Some families may not yet have a Pediatric Dentist to call. My expertise and knowledge can help serve as your source as I provide answers with information that is current, informative and the Gold Standards of Care which are the practice Guidelines approved by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. I want to help you access this important information by answering your questions through this site. You may want to submit your own individual questions or you can view my postings and answers to other families questions that may apply to your child's needs. I am committed to helping you stay informed, after all it is all about your child.
