Use Swirlit when you might use chewing gum or mouthwash for fresh breath and if you experience dry mouth symptoms.
There is no need to use a medicated mouthwash such as one that contains chlorhexidiene unless you have gingivitis (bleeding gums) and it has been recommended by your dentist.
Alcohol containing mouthwashes should be avoided as they can lead to an increase in the amount of tartar formed on teeth, can stain teeth, cause altered taste sensations and a dry mouth. Ingredients in traditional mouthwashes are toxic to our oceans as they are disposed of by spitting into the sinks. Despite going through a wastewater treatment process, the by-products are pollutant. There is strong evidence to suggest that aquatic species such as algae, invertebrates and some types of fish that have had accumulated exposure to Triclosan, have exhibited reproductive and developmental effects.
A sugar free chewing gum is good for improving saliva flow and neutralising the acidity in the mouth following eating, which can prevent dental cavities.
Long term use of chewing gum in people with TMD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction, basically teeth grinding, clenching and headaches) can lead to exacerbation of the TMD symptoms. Chewing gum is also a choking hazard. Chewing gum is not biodegradable and generates over 250,000 tons of waste every year!
Swirlit contains Xylitol. In large doses, Xylitol can cause diarrhoea and digestive imbalance. Swirlit contains 1.5g per serving. The recommendations for daily dose of xylitol to reduce dental cavities in children is 8mg per day as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. To minimise gas and diarrhoea, Swirlit can be introduced slowly, oer a week or more.
While the ingredients in Swirlit are in doses within safe food limits, there are no studies testing the effects in pregnancy. Ask your doctor for personalised advice.
There are only 6 calories in 100mL! There are about 5 calories per piece of sugar-free chewing gum.

Epub 2008 Feb 15. Academic Center for Oral Health, University Medical Center Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands. It can be concluded that the composition of the beverages had a significant effect on the determination of the erosive potential with chemical analyses. Drink composition also influenced the effect of small versus large exposure volumes, indicating the need for standardization of exposure parameters. Hara AT, Zero DT.

It is concluded that fruit juices and fruit-based carbonated beverages, with their increased buffering capacities, may induce a prolonged drop in oral pH.
Owens BM. The potential effects of pH and buffering capacity on dental erosion. Gen Dent. 2007 NovDec;55(6):527-31. University of Tennessee College of Dentistry, Memphis, USA. Soft drink pH (initial pH) has been shown to be a causative factor--but not necessarily the primary initiating factor--of dental erosion. The titratable acidity or buffering capacity has been acknowledged as playing a significant role in the etiology of these lesions.

J Clin Pediatr Dent. 2007 Spring; 31(3):153-9. CONCLUSION: Both carbonated and non-carbonated beverages displayed a significant erosive effect on dental enamel; however, fluoride varnish treatments did not demonstrate a significant protective influence on enamel surfaces.

Lesion depths were not associated with pH or titratable acidity. Beverages popular in the United States can produce dental erosion According to the American Academy of General Dentistry, exposure to acidic foods and beverages with pH values below 4 can result in dental erosion. Our new beverage (HealthySweet) has a pH of 4.2. !
1.“This is what happens when you drink soda”, Lindsay Maxfield, March 28 2013, www.ksl.com Quoted from the article: Sugar is not the only harmful substance in soda that effects dental health. A 2006 study published in the Academy of General Dentistry Journal found that drinking soda is nearly as harmful for your teeth as drinking battery acid. That’s because soda actually contains acid (mostly citric and/or phosphoric), which corrodes tooth enamel. With a pH of 3.2, diet soda are even more acidic than regular sodas. According to the Colgate Oral and Dental Health Resource Center, soft drinks are among the most significant sources of tooth decay. “Acids and acidic sugar byproducts in soft drinks soften tooth enamel, contribution to the formation of cavities. In extreme cases, softer enamel combined with improper brushing, grinding of the teeth or other conditions can lead tooth loss.”

9.“The acidic and erosive potential of five sports drinks”, Rees J, Loyn T, McAndrew R, Eur J Prosthodont Dent, 2005;13(4): 186-190. Sports drinks pH varies between 3.16-3.70. This leads to dental erosion. Note: when sports drinks are consumed the pH of the saliva is lowered can lead to dental erosion. If they are also consumed during or close to the time of a sporting activity the erosive potential is increased. The reason is that during times of exercise saliva flow is reduced. In the absence of saliva to buffer or neutralise the acidic conditions in the mouth, the enamel dissolves.

23.ADA Media Release: ‘Low sugar’ soft drinks still contain the same risk of tooth decay http://www.ada.org.au/ App_CmsLib/Media/Lib/1302/M488427_v1_634973845682876522.pdf: While the Australian Dental Association Inc. (ADA) welcomes the release of the Australian Dietary Guidelines and the Infant Feeding Guidelines (Guidelines), it warns Australians that limiting their consumption of soft drinks to ‘low-kilojoule’ ones does not go far enough. The Guidelines were developed after examining the scientific evidence about the best dietary patterns for Australians of all ages and were released by the National Health and Medical Research Council and the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing earlier this week. “While the Guidelines suggest that the consumption of sugar-sweetened drinks (soft drinks) is associated with increased risk of weight gain in adults in children, the ADA warns that this only tells half the story,” Chair of the ADA’s Oral Health Committee, Dr Peter Alldritt said. “The public is urged to also note that the Guidelines state: ‘The acidity of sweetened drinks is also relevant to dental erosion, a major factor in dental decay. This applies equally to sweetened or diet soft drinks, since their acidity is comparable.’ “Whether or not a soft drink has ‘low sugar’ it still has the same amount of acidity, and therefore still increases the risk of dental caries. Australians should limit their consumption of soft drinks, whether or not they are high or ‘low’ in sugar.” “Australians should be careful to limit their consumption of cordials, fruit drinks, vitamin waters, energy and sports drinks and soft drinks (both full flavour and low sugar varieties). Children and teens should be encouraged to drink water (preferably fluoridated tap water) as much as possible.”
There are many times a day where we get close to another person. Work colleagues, treating doctors, beauty therapists, class mates, friends, family and romantic partners are among the types of people who will have reason and opportunity to smell each other’s breath through various activities. Unfortunately, sometimes we find that another person’s breath can be undesirable and it is difficult to be upfront and tell someone that their breath isn’t fresh.
There are many causes for bad breath or halitosis. If the odour is of an oral origin it is commonly caused by volatile sulfur compounds: hydrogen sulphide and methyl mercaptan. These compounds are produced when bacteria in the mouth breakdown food debris. If bacteria remains in the mouth too long, and if there is imbalance between acids, bacteria, sugars and poor oral hygiene dental decay, gum disease and can result. Dehydration leading to a dry mouth, certain medications, sinus infections, a high protein diet and gastric issues can also lead to bad breath. Determining the cause of any persistent bad breath is important (and telling someone that they have bad breath is actually doing them a favour!) to make sure that any potential disease is managed.
Bad breath from garlic, onion, coffee, alcohol or smoking can be very difficult to mask. The traditional solutions such as mouthwash or chewing gum often lead to strong “minty” flavour which doesn’t disguise the offending cause of the bad breath. Mouthwash containing alcohol also dries the mouth which can lead to an actual worsening of the bad breath smell. Polyphenols and other natural ingredients in Swirlit help to eradicate the underlying odour. Also by hydrating and moisturising the mouth Swirlit can prevent bad breath.
