Facts about Xylitol. Xylitol creates a perfect pH balance in the mouth to stimulate a healing process that can naturally repair your teeth. When Xylitol is eaten it not only brings minerals by salivary stimulation but creates an alkaline environment in which these minerals can help heal soft or damaged areas on teeth and help to rebuild and strengthen them.

Facts about Xylitol

This blog is dedicated to the facts about Xylitol. Comments are welcome. Here are a few xylitol facts:
  • Pregnant women will benefit from eating Xylitol to keep their own teeth healthy especially during the last trimester of pregnancy, when teeth are especially soft.
  • Eating Xylitol mints or gum after any drink or snack to protect your teeth (especially before sleeping). By bringing the PH levels close to neutral.
  • Xylitol is a natural choice for athletes and anyone who wants to take care of their teeth: Athletes are at higher risk for cavities and dental damage because they consume acidic sports drinks frequently, eat carbohydrates often and spend hours dehydrated and breathing through a dry acidic mouth. Each of these is a risk factor for tooth decay and gum disease: fortunately Xylitol can help.
  • A dry mouth promotes the growth of harmful germs which damage your teeth. Xylitol will make your mouth an inhospitable place for these dangerous germs.
  • Exercising or sleeping without cleaning your teeth leaves them at risk. Eat Xylitol gum or mints before and during exercise, before napping and whenever you need to clean or protect your teeth.
  • Eating Xylitol gum or mints stimulates saliva flow and also makes the mouth acid-neutral (pH 7.0)
  • Eating Xylitol after sports drinks and sodas, will help protect your teeth from damage (diet soda has a pH 2.2).
  • Xylitol can control plaque and lessen the need for dental visits.
  • If you have early gum disease or cavities, there is a chance these problems can be reversed (yes, repaired) by you, at home! If you have advanced gum disease and large cavities, regular use of Xylitol can stop things from getting worse.

Not all Xylitol is the same…

The xylitol used in Total Sweet is of the highest possible quality and is extracted from sustainably farmed birch wood; beware of cheaper corn based products
