Inhibiting Bacterial Adhesion: Xylitol inhibits bacterial adhesion, so bacteria can’t stick to gums and oral tissue, allowing them to be washed away more easily.
Breaking Down Bacterial Biofilm: Xylitol breaks down bacterial biofilms, the colonies where bacteria thrive and multiply.
Starving Bad Bacteria: Unlike other sweeteners used in other oral care products, xylitol doesn’t provide energy to the bacteria in the mouth. However, bacteria still try to consume xylitol, which initiates a process of starving out the bacteria.
