Lotte Xylitol Neo Dental Health Chewing Gum Lime Mint Flavored contain in small pack, net weight 12 g which have gum 8 pellets to be easy to carry them. Xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol sweetener with dental protection properties. It's often used as a sugar substitute. Xylitol's sweetness is comparable or similar to sucrose or table sugar, although it only has two-thirds the food energy and 75% of the calories. Xylitol has virtually no aftertaste. It has no known toxicity in humans and is safe for people with diabetes and hyperglycemia. As we all know, sweets are bad for our dental health. But Xylitol is an exception. Unlike most sweeteners, which in excess amounts can damage the teeth and gums, Xylitol is widely considered as "tooth-friendly". It actually aids in the prevention of cavities that harm or damage the teeth and gums. Mutans Streptococci are bacteria commonly found in a person's oral cavity. The growth and metabolism of these bacteria enable the formation of plaque. They absorb the sugars and carbohydrates from our food and metabolize them into lactic acid. The acid decalcifies or mineralizes the tooth enamel, making it vulnerable to decay. Xylitol, unlike sucrose, can't be metabolized by these bacteria. Without a sugar to metabolize, the bacteria cannot produce lactic acid. This helps stop the build-up of plaque and cavity, therefore decreasing the risk of tooth decay. This is why dental health gums are OK. In fact, Lotte Xylitol is more than OK because it effectively helps prevent tooth decay, is sugar-free, uses more than 50% Xylitol as substitute sweetener, and can aid in making the teeth healthier with a regular intake of 2 pellets, 4-5 times a day.
