If you use xylitol gum, do not chew it for longer than 10 minutes-by which time the sweet taste should be gone. Longer gum chewing will bring a different kind of digestive saliva into the mouth, which will dilute and wash away the xylitol-stimulated saliva that is most useful for healing the gums and teeth. It's ideal immediately after each xylitol exposure to have a period when you do not eat or drink for at least an hour-this allows saliva with xylitol dissolved in it to interact with the mouth and teeth, and for xylitol to work in what is called a prebiotic capacity, which serves to nurture the mouth's population of good bacteria. [2025] - Ellie Phillips
