Spry Natural Xylitol Chewing Gum - Spearmint, 550 Count - Pack of 1

I bought this gum for myself, because I'm trying to work with my son on chewing gum to provide him with a societally acceptable way of oral stemming, and I was blowing through more of his fruit flavored gum that way, and I really prefer mint anyways. We need a gum with xylitol only, because with one of our son's medical conditions, Sotos Syndrome, aspartame can cause seizures. And because he gets into and tries to chew on everything, I prefer to make sure nobody has any products with aspartame in the house. So, I've tried one other brand of mint flavored xylitol gum off of Amazon, and that one was made by Epic dental. I'm going to tell you this stuff by Spry is WAY, way better. Way better. The Epic one had a very harsh, strong taste even to me, and I've got to tell you I used to blow through boxes of Altoids like they were nothin' back when sugar and I were still on more regular speaking terms. The flavor on the spry is definitely very pleasant, and it lasts longer then the Epic dental one did. Typically what I have found is that xylitol gum tends to loose it's flavor quickly. This one does better then the other brands I have tried and the texture stays good...some brands go mushy and mooshy. So, will it last as long as trident? No, the main burst of full flavor is gone in about 10 minutes or so, but there is a bit of a minty after taste that lingers for about half an hour. And that is definitely superior to our experience with Epic, and even with Zellies. And we like the Zellies, the flavor just doesn't last as long as Spry's does. Now, a quick note on Xylitol. I don't have tons of time to read through all of the studies on this, but in general it appears that it can inhibit the growth of the bacteria that causes cavities. Which, given that I just had some cavities filled today...probably isn't a bad thing ;) And it may not be a bad thing for you either. There was some criticism by researchers over seas about the quality of the xylitol studies, but...pretty much everybody including those people agree it's better for your teeth then gums or mints with sugar. So in our house, I'm saying this is a 5 star product. I actually *really* like it a whole lot and totally plan on buying more in the future...

I like this gum it has no artificial flavors or colors and is quite delicious. Additionally it has no additives like aspartame or artificial sweeteners of any kind which I do not like and will not tolerate. This gum is sweetened with Xylitol and that's why I chose it and studies show that is actually good for your teeth. It arrived quickly and it's a good value.

I like this gum a lot. For one, it is a great way to protect your teeth from cavaties, but it also freshens my breath for a long time. Xylitol is the way to go for tasty gum that is low in sugar content!

I bought these fresh out of dental hygiene school because I learned they had the optimal serving of xylitol. The spearmint flavor is nice, but it's pretty mild and fades quickly. I took off one star because the texture is very firm, and I can't chew it straight out of the pack on my molars that have fillings because it causes sensitivity. I simply chew it with my premolars until it's soft enough. My teeth definitely feel refreshed and clean after chewing, and it's a nice touch after lunch when the freshness of my morning brush has worn off. My husband always notices after I chew it and comments that my breath smells nice. I also like the natural ingredients and will be recommending these to patients in the future.

I’m currently on a carnivore diet. I can’t do sugar, so I have tried other brands of sugar free gum and they don’t last, have a weird consistency, or just plain taste bad. Had someone recommend Spry to me, and now I’m on my second jar! It’s just like normal gum (that’s what I want). It also keeps me in ketosis and tastes great. The jar is an added bonus, always stays fresh.

This gum is pretty decent. It loses its flavor after only a few minutes of chewing, but I don't chew it for the taste. It tastes good, but there are other benefits to chewing this gum and those are more important to me. I generally pop 2 pieces in my mouth after each time I eat and chew for anywhere between 15-45 minutes. I think it does an excellent job of removing the food from my teeth, especially the deep pits of the molars. It helps to reduce cavities by not allowing the bacteria to munch on the leftover food in your mouth. I generally have a nice clean feeling in my mouth after chewing. This gum does not replace flossing - I recommend that people still floss, but the dental benefits of this gum are fantastic. Best of all it's sweetened with xylitol which won't cause your bloodsugar to spike and it does not contribute to cavities because of the structure of the xylitol molecules.

1 container of the 2 pak was fine. However I just opened the second one today and the gum is all sort of yellowish and tastes bad. Unfortunately the return window closed on 3/28!! I've been ordering this gum for a long time. might have to find a new place to buy it, sadly!

Tastes good like a chicklette.

3 a day, one after each meal usually has been great for me. All the studies say massive reduction in cavities when using xylitol gum.

Very good very healthy I recommend it

Really happy with this gum. Chiclets are small and just the right size for a quick freshen up of the mouth after food. Gum is soft and flavour stays long enough for me as I dont keep it in the mouth for too long anyway. Good for the teeth with the xylitol, and no horrid aspartame or other nasties, giving it a clean, non-chemically, natural spearmint flavour. Recommended.

For dry mouth and for oral hygiene I love this.

Has the same texture as normal gum! Love the minty taste however the taste does wear off quite quick! Other than that, I love how xylitol is the main ingredient! Would recommend to anyone who has struggled/struggles with cavities!
