Help protect your teeth with Xylitol!
Xylitol is a naturally found sweetener found in birch trees. It's not metabolized into acids like sugar and doesn't harm the teeth as sugar does. Xylitol has been used as a sweetener but in the Nordic countries like Finland, Korea and Japan (and in a small extent elsewhere) it is commonly used to prevent caries.
Xylitol is a defender of the acid attack!
When we eat, the bacteria in the mouth become very active and produce acids that are harmful to the teeth. If this happens only occasionally during the day the tooth surface can stand it, but frequent acid attacks cause damage to the teeth surface. That's how cavities start.
Frequently asked questions
Just look for sweetened 100% with Xylitol notes.
No, Xylitol is very dangerous for dogs even in small quantities (alongside with chocolate) so keep them out of reach from animals and small children.
To stop the acid attacks, always use Xylitol after meals.
We have everything from mints to salty licorice. For example popular Sisu pastilles that normally have sugar also have sugar-free (100% Xylitol) version.
Dental benefits of Xylitol were recognized in Finland in 1970. The first chewing gum developed for the purpose of reducing dental caries and improving oral health was released in Finland in 1975 and in North America shortly after.
