I only recently started chewing it. Last time I went to see my periodontist, he told me that they have found out that gum with Xylitol actually kills the germs that cause tooth decay. He advised chewing gum sweetened with it, for at least 5 minutes, twice a day. I started following his advice by chewing Ice Breakers Ice Cubes gum twice a day and had the first perfect dental check up I've ever had a couple of weeks ago! If anyone is wanting to give this a try, Xylitol has to be the 1st ingredient listed for it to be effective.

Yes, I'm serious! I was a bit sceptical, but decided to try it anway. This is the only thing I did differently too. My dental hygenist didn't know I had done this (different dental office). She said she'd never seen such a drastic change in anyone's teeth and gums.

I like chewing Orbit White. Occassionally, I will chew big red (my son usually has it so if I run out of mine I bum a piece from him).
