Peppersmith make mints and gum that are actively good for your teeth. By steering clear of sugar and only using 100% xylitol which helps reduce plaque and tooth decay. Xylitol is a naturally occurring sugar alternative. It has fewer calories than sugar (40% less), has lower GI and, most importantly, has well established active dental health benefits. Tooth decay starts with harmful bacteria in the mouth which form plaque. Sugary foods give these bacteria energy to multiply and produce acids that dissolve the enamel of the tooth and cause decay. But when bacteria absorb xylitol they can't produce acids and they can't multiply. In fact numbers reduce by 90%. It also prevents them from sticking to teeth so less plaque is formed. Eating xylitol means fewer acid attacks, less bacteria and less plaque which means less decay.
