A. In terms of dental health, it is good to increase the salivary flow rate as often as possible, i.e. to secrete what is called stimulated saliva. The faster the saliva flow, the greater its buffer capacity, that is, its power of resisting the drops in saliva pH and thus in plaque pH.

In terms of dental health, it is good to increase the salivary flow rate as often as possible. This keeps the pH of the mouth more alkaline and resistant to tooth decay. Xylitol in chewing gum stimulates salivary flow and is therefore also useful for the protecting the teeth of people who suffer from dry mouth.
