Spry Fresh Natural Xylitol Chewing Gum Dental Defense System - Aspartame-Free, Sugar-Free, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free (Spearmint, 100 Count - Pack of 1)

Just overall good. It helped one of my teeth to start growing back after getting a root canal done on it.

I wanted this gum because studies have shown xylitol reduces tooth decay (see Wikipedia quote below). I put this in my kids' lunch, because they have had some issues with cavities, and despite my begging that they brush at lunch, I am very sure they are not. I take this gum also, and I chew it after my lunch. I know my kids will chew this, even if the flavor doesn't last long, because it's gum- and all gum is better than no gum. On the negatives side, if you are looking for a gum that stays soft and chewy and flavorful for a long time, this isn't it. I like the flavor- it's not bitter like some cinnamon gums, but I can't say it lasts long. I chew it, feel it freshens my breath and may help my teeth, and the pretty quickly, when it starts to taste like unflavored rubber, I spit it out.what follows is from wiki:Xylitol is a "toothfriendly" sugar. In addition to not encouraging tooth decay (by replacing dietary sugars), xylitol may actively aid in repairing minor cavities caused by dental caries.[citation needed] Early studies from Finland in the 1970s found that a group chewing sucrose gum had 2.92 decayed, missing, or filled (dmf) teeth compared to 1.04 in the group chewing xylitol gums. In another study, researchers had mothers chew xylitol gum 3 months after delivery until their children were 2 years old. The researchers found that the xylitol group had "a 70% reduction in caries (dmf)." Recent research confirms a plaque-reducing effect and suggests that the compound, having some chemical properties similar to sucrose, attracts and then "starves" harmful micro-organisms, allowing the mouth to remineralize damaged teeth with less interruption. (However, this same effect also interferes with yeast micro-organisms and others, so xylitol is inappropriate for making yeast-based bread, for instance.)Xylitol based products are allowed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to make the medical claim that they do not promote dental caries.[9]

This gum is so good like juicy fruit..and it really good for teeth and killing germs in

I love this type of sugar-free gum as I have had amazing results using xylitol for my teeth and would only consider using a gum with that main ingredient. However, I still need a gum to perform like gum at least long enough to justify the cost.The flavor only lasts about 10 minutes. Not great.I don’t really enjoy overly sweet things, and this one is just right in that sense, but I still want it to taste like something for at least half-an hour. This loses all flavor very quickly. And it becomes overly soft too at some point. Less chewable. If you like a softer gum, then you will like this.What I’m confused about is that I know I’ve used this one before and don’t remember having the lost flavor problem with it. Like it’s not going to last all day, I know. But it should definitely last longer than a few minutes. Did they change the formula?I would still buy it because I don’t dislike it, and the ingredients are clean. It still serves a purpose. But I recently tried a different kind on here and found it to be vastly superior to this one. I’ll probably go back to that one. If this one is still cheaper though I will definitely waffle.On a plus note, the packaging is ideal. The little container is portable and totally reusable. I’ll probably use it for a diy cream jar. Very easy to carry around.

To be fair, I absolutely love Spry's natural fruit and natural cinnamon gums. But this 'peppermint' is really, REALLY horrible. It tastes and smells like Vicks, like the strongest eucalyptus cough drop ever, the kind you have to spit out almost immediately because you can't take it anymore. Now I know what it's like to accidentally eat Vicks lol. I couldn't detect any hint of peppermint at all, the taste and smell of eucalyptus menthol was too overpowering. Gotta admit though, seriously, it really opened up my sinuses after only a cpl of seconds before I spit it out.

Good product

Easy to chew and freshens breath, although it loses its flavor in 3-5 minutes. I am glad to have natural ingredients.

Quick delivery and this gum is great for a dry mouth. My ENT suggested this for dry mouth. The taste is minty.
