Can chewing gum actually keep away plache?!
Question:
Can chewing gum actually keep away plache?
well I am just wondering I don't know for sure it just seemed like a good question
Answers:
Sugar-sweetened gums like Wrigley's Double Mint, Juicy Fruit, etc. will actually cause MORE plaque to form on your teeth-- The germs that make up the plaque grow best on sugar.
Only sugarless gums like Trident, Orbit, etc. will retard plaque growth. They won't actually get rid of plaque though-- You still need to brush and floss the plaque off.
Hope this helps.
