Chewing gum is intended to be chewed for a longer amount of time than nearly every other food, because of its unique characteristics. If someone only chewed sugared bubblegum for a few minutes then disposed of it, the presence of sugar could potentially be harmful to teeth - like many other foods that contain sugar. Teeth are more at risk for caries development with frequent exposure to carbohydrate-containing foods. However, if bubblegum is chewed for 10 minutes, it will stimulate saliva production that will quickly neutralize the oral cavity, allowing for the body's "natural defenses" to kick in. | | tools | | | | | | did you know | | | | During Prohibition, law enforcement officers were so impressed by Canada Dry's popularity that they analysed it for alcoholic content. |  | |
