#xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol that is commonly used as a sweetener. Xylitol is sweet like table sugar, but it contains 40% fewer calories. Xylitol is great for your teeth. 5+ exposures to xylitol each day will reduce plaque as effectively as brushing your teeth. So switch your chewing gum, mints, #toothpaste and #mouthwash over to Xylitol. #dentalhealth
