What the AI looks for in Chewing Gum
- Sugar-free
- Choose sugar-free for frequent chewing. Sugared gum feeds cavity-causing bacteria.
- ADA Seal
- Look for the ADA Seal of Acceptance on the pack. It indicates the gum's dental claims were reviewed.
- Sweetener
- Xylitol as the first sweetener for dental use; aspartame-containing gums carry a phenylalanine warning. Sweetener choice affects dental effect, PKU safety and aftertaste.
- Gum base
- Synthetic base for chew and flavor longevity; chicle base for plant-based or biodegradable preferences. Natural bases tend to break down and lose flavor sooner.
- Pet safety
- Treat any xylitol gum as a dog hazard. Gum is one of the most common sources of xylitol poisoning in dogs.
Brands that matter
- Extra: Mainstream sugar-free gum; ADA Seal.
- Orbit: Sugar-free; ADA Seal.
- Trident: Sugar-free with xylitol in the blend.
- Spry: Xylitol-first dental gum.

What to avoid
