Fight cavities, chew sugarless gum! That's right, most dentists now agree that chewing sugarless gum regularly can help fight cavities!

Chewing gum increases an individual’s saliva. Saliva works as a natural buffering agent which washes your teeth and neutralizes some of the acid produced by bacteria. However make sure that the gum you are chewing is sugarless, because if it is not, then the saliva will just spread sugar across your teeth, which in return will cause cavities.
