Remineralization of enamel subsurface lesions in situ by the use of three commercially available sugar-free gums
The beneficial dental effects of chewing sugar-free gum, particularly decreased caries experience, have been reported. The reduction in caries experience is most likely caused by increased salivary flow rates and increased levels of calcium and phosphate in gum-stimulated saliva limiting demin...

| Summary: |
The beneficial dental effects of chewing sugar-free
gum, particularly decreased caries experience,
have been reported. The reduction in caries
experience is most likely caused by increased
salivary flow rates and increased levels of
calcium and phosphate in gum-stimulated
saliva limiting demineralization and enhancing
remineralization. |
