Subjects were randomly allocated to a group and entered a 4-week "washout period" during which no gum was chewed, followed by a 3-week treatment period (treatment period 1) during which Group A used Xylitol gum.(2 gum pieces, 3 times daily after meals for 6 minutes).Then underwent another 4-week washout period before entering treatment period 2 during which Group A used Gum Sorbitol

Subjects were randomly allocated to a group and entered a 4-week "washout period" during which no gum was chewed, followed by a 3-week treatment period (treatment period 1) during which Group B used sorbitol gum. Group B used Gum Sorbitol (2 gum pieces, 3 times daily after meals for 6 minutes).Then underwent another 4-week washout period before entering treatment period 2 during which Group B used Gum xylitol

Human Microbiome

Xylitol gum contains 70% xylitol in addition to gum base, natural flavors, soy lecithin, gum arabic, titanium dioxide, carnuba wax. Sorbitol gum was similar except that xylitol was replaced by 63% sorbitol and 2% maltitol and aspartame was included.
