Xylitol
Not a sugar but a sugar alcohol
Five carbon atoms instead of six like normal sugar, bacteria in your mouth are unable to make use of.
Many of the foods we already eat have xylitol in them, examples strawberries, raspberries, mushrooms and most veggies.
Can actually heal slight decay as well as prevent decay
Studies show children chewing xylitol gum, 4mg twice a day, had 40% drops in decay.

Quantity: 2010
Consumption now includes large quantities of sports and energy drinks.
Teenage boys drink, on average, three or more cans of soda per day.
