Episode 640: Ep 640 Why Xylitol has a higher protection factor in fighting cavities than fluoride.
Cavities are still one of America’s most common diseases – despite decades of fluoride use. Xlear is calling on the FDA to recognize xylitol as an active anticaries ingredient so dental professionals and patients can finally access this powerful tool. Xylitol, a safe and natural compound, has been proven to stop cavity- causing bacteria and dramatically reduce tooth decay.The American Dental Hygienist Association (ADHA) in conjunction with Xlear, a leader in hygiene products, filed a citizen petition with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) urging the FDA to formally recognize xylitol as an approved Over-the-Counter (OTC) active ingredient in dental hygiene products, including toothpaste, rinses, gels, mouthwashes, gums, and lozenges.Xylitol addresses the root cause of tooth decay. In contrast, fluoride strengthens tooth enamel. Fluoride has almost no effect on the bacteria that causes tooth decay. Studies have shown that xylitol has a higher “protection factor” in fighting cavities than fluoride.“Dental decay is the single most common communicable, chronic disease inflicting Americans today. Moreover, dental decay is also closely associated with driving other serious health risks - ranging from heart disease to diabetes,” said Trisha O'Hehir, MS, RDH.Key Facts:· Nearly 90% of U.S. adults have experienced tooth decay.· Studies show xylitol can reduce cavities by up to 80%.· Xylitol works by neutralizing acid-producing bacteria and protecting enamel at the source.· Xylitol is safe if swallowed, a key benefit for children.· Widely used internationally, xylitol is already found in gum and oral hygiene products. The petition requests that FDA: Amend 21 C.F.R. Part 355 to list xylitol as an approved anti-caries active ingredient. Alternatively, issue a new OTC monograph under Section 505G of the FDCA.Learn more about the Petition hereXlear is one of the nation’s leaders in effective xylitol hygiene products, available inpharmacies, big box stores, natural retailers and online.XLEAR’s Retailers: Walgreens, CVS, Vitamin Shoppe, Target, Kroger, Sprouts, Natural Grocers and most natural products retailers nationwide.XLEAR’s Online Retailers: Amazon, iHerb, Lucky Vitamin, and Vitacost.comLearn more at Xlear.com or SprySmile.com
