Chewing gum for fighting tooth decay??? Do they really help?

Can confirm this chewing gum really does help...infact a couple of years ago my dentist recommended I use it as it contains Xylitol which is similar to the chemical found in mouthwash. It's definately worth using after meals and snacks and I must admit I dramatically saw a difference in the health of my teeth and gums after using it.

chewing gum is however is tooth exerise but it does not prevent tooth decay

So Orbit really works! I always wanted to know if it does and with so many here saying it does do so, I think I'll try it now.

I chew gum often, I understand that certain gum really helps fight tooth decay, I uses a gum call Extra, but every time my husband catch me chewing gum, he always tell's me that my face will get hard, so I don't chew gum as often as before.

chewing gum is not affected to our mouth or tooth .yes orbit is a do with a chemical and any other things . i will not eat daily . but it really worked good but we will chewing gum after eating so our teeth will good. after

I like to chew gum but don't do it often I never thought of it as it would be good for you even if it says it helps prevent tooth decay.

What most all of gum has in it, not just the sugar free types is a chemical that will kill you. ASPARTAME. It is hidden by useing a number of different names. It is extremely dangerous. It is highly addictive, and it also is a serious health problem for diabetics because it triggers insulin in many people just like sugar. It has killed and maimed thousands upon thousands around the world. Don't be fooled. You can read up on it by looking up Dr. Betty Martini's site. She has dedicated her life to this insidious chemical. I was a victim, and I could go on all day about what I went through...but I just don't want anyone else fooled into damaging their health. Read the ingredients in all processed food. I found it even in electrolite fluids for children.
