On the back of my gum bag it said that chewing gum within 20 mintues after eating will help reduce cavities or something along the lines of that.
In: Biology
chewing gum- **sugar-free** not only dislodges foreign objects in your teeth, but it helps stimulate the production of saliva which in turn flushes out bacteria and food products left in your mouth. the extra saliva also strengthens enamel, so by chewing gum after eating it helps clear your teeth of leftover foods and works to strengthen enamel rather than let foods and bacteria sit and work away at your mouth
