Shhhh! Don’t tell your dentist my daily routine that has greatly improved my oral health. Using xylitol mouthwash can really improve salivary pH.
Why pH Matters?
Beneficial, health-promoting microbes thrive in a neutral environment, while harmful, cavity-causing bacteria love acid.
When your mouth drops below a pH of 5.5 (the danger zone), your tooth enamel begins to lose minerals and demineralize.
Natural saliva works best at a neutral level to wash away food particles and neutralize acids
