Imagine an all-natural sweetener that is as delicious as sugar, low in calories, and actually helps reduce the effects of harmful bacteria. In fact, these are just some of the reasons why xylitol is growing in popularity as the perfect sweetener for a healthy lifestyle!
Xylitol is a naturally occurring sugar alcohol found in virtually all fruits. With a molecular structure different from regular sugars, xylitol actually inhibits bacterial growth. As a food additive, xylitol limits the formation of tooth-destroying acids and reduces the ability of plaque to adhere to intraoral surfaces.
Studies further indicate that the effects of xylitol actually compound the benefits of fluoride, such as remineralization of tooth enamel. Also the sweet, cool taste of xylitol increases salivary flow, optimizing pH level in the mouth to promote dental health.
The Spry Dental Defense System from Xlear is the best way to "treat" your patients with xylitol. Evidence clearly illustrates that when combined with proper oral hygiene and regular dental care, the use of Spry products will significantly reduce the risk of caries and gum inflammation.
Spry Sugar-Free Mints concentrate the benefits of xylitol into delicious hard candies. Each mint contributes one X-point toward the daily 18-point Dental Defense System target. 1.2 calories each. 225 two-piece packs per dispenser box in three assorted flavors.
