Low calorie sweeteners can be a dental health ally
Low calorie sweeteners are non-cariogenic ingredients, meaning that they are not broken down by oral bacteria and do not contribute to tooth decay. Used as sugar replacement in foods and beverages, low calorie sweeteners allow people to enjoy sweet-tasting products whilst reducing the risk of dental caries.
Committed to its objective to raise awareness on important health issues, the International Sweeteners Association (ISA) supports FDI World Dental Federation this year again, in 2017, in celebrating World Oral Health Day, and in highlighting that good oral hygiene is critical to “Live Mouth Smart”.
