"The increased saliva flow helps neutralise acids and wash away food particles, making it a convenient ally for oral health."The expert explained: "Aside from its more obvious benefits, sugar-free gum can be a silent hero for those suffering from dry mouth and bad breath.
Stimulating saliva production helps alleviate these uncomfortable conditions, offering a simple yet effective remedy."Another benefit is its ability to reduce tooth sensitivity, as chewing increases saliva, which can significantly mitigate sensitivity and discomfort."Dr Hamid added: "Many are surprised that sugar-free gum can bolster tooth enamel, much like fluoride.
Opting for gum sweetened with xylitol can reduce the acid left on your teeth and help supply essential minerals back to your enamel.
Xylitol also helps prevent plaque bacteria from sticking to teeth and reversing early signs of decay."What's interesting is that sugar-free gum can also play a role in protecting against dental erosion.
