Review on Spiffies Toothwipes, Grape Wipes - Convenient 20-Count Triple Pack (Pack May Vary) by Kristen Lopez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Xylitol works well in diapers

I use these on my baby as they need to drink constantly, usually milk which isn't really good for their teeth. Sugar alcohol, I chew orbit myself for the same reason. In other foods, this chemical stimulates the taste buds to sweetness, contains no fructose, and has little effect on blood sugar and insulin levels - diabetic information - worth reading for his group. SO! Studies have shown that xylitol improves dental health and prevents tooth decay! One of the leading risk factors for tooth decay is a bacterium in the mouth called Streptococcus mutans. These are the bacteria most responsible for plaque. Excess plaque triggers your immune system to attack the bacteria it contains. This can lead to inflammatory gum disease such as gingivitis. Bacteria in the mouth feed on glucose from food but cannot utilize xylitol. Replacing sugar with xylitol reduces the amount of food available to them, BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE, the bacteria can't use it BUT they swallow it anyway. After ingesting xylitol, they can't absorb sugar, basically like sewing your mouth shut, so the bacteria die because they can't eat! to die! and protect your teeth!
