A Candy That Reduces Tooth Decay More Than Regular Brushing
Reseachers have developed a candy that helps fight tooth decay. It actually mimics a component of saliva that can neutralize acids in the mouth. It is called CaviStat.
100 chldren were asked to brush their teeth twice a day and then take two of the Cavistat and another 100 were asked to just brush their teeth twice a day and take a sugarless mint.
The results were astounding after a year. The 100 who took the CaviStat had 61.7 fewer cavities than the control group. The mints are so designed to be chewed into the back molars where cavities might occur.
