but I heard Xylitol gum is more effective when chewing after brushing our teeth and before going to sleep. Isn't it interesting? hehe :P
Right! Xylitol gum is more effective when chewing before going to sleep. So, Xylitol advertisement says, "This gum chewing before going to bed in Finland, Xylitol gum!" Haha:)
