There is a recent major study in cavity control that is notable since it recognizes Xylitol as an important anti-caries molecule that protects teeth in children. For more information read the conclusion below and my book Dentistry Xposed: Protecting You, Your Smile & Your Wallet. Here is the Conclusion: The reported effects of xylitol confections in the reduction of decay increments are notable. Public health promotion of strategies to reduce the probability or level of colonization of mothers and, perhaps, other caregivers, by mutans streptococci, whether based on use of xylitol, restriction of certain sugars, excavation and filling of carious lesions, antiseptic treatment, and/or other strategies, is of great interest. The literature indicates that these strategies can affect delay of cariogenic microbial infection of children and consequent mitigation of their caries experience. It would seem appropriate for practitioners to use such strategies to protect the dental health of children now, and for healthresearch funding agencies/industry to conduct large-scale clinical trials to assess population dental health improvement of children by treatment of their mothers and caretakers. Other caretakers should include grand-mothers and daycare personnel who increasingly participate in the rearing of children in this time of growing parental obligations to the workplace.
