Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The total amount of dietary fermentable carbohydrate seems of less importance than the form and frequency in which it is eaten. Generally, multiple exposures of even small quantities of fermentable carbohydrate throughout the day is considered a highly cariogenic behavior. Swishing with water and chewing sugarless gum following any exposure can reduce the fermentation potential. The American Dental Association has approved the use of the ADA seal on sugarless gums by several manufacturers.
