Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a chewing gum having preventing effects on teeth decay, containing amylase and/or glucoamylase. CONSTITUTION:A chewing gum decomposing carbohydrates accumulated on the surface of decayed teeth into glucose and an alcohol, showing preventing effects on tooth decay, containing amylase and/or glucoamylase. Use of the chewing gum extremely suppresses deposition of dental calculus. The chewing gum may be blended with various chewing gum bases, saccharide, thick malt syrup, spice, thickening agent, antioxidant, antiseptic, mildewproofing agent, dyestuff, etc., in a range not to damage the effects besides the enzymes.

Detailed Description of the Invention [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is characterized by incorporating amylase and/or glucoamylase as a component of the gum, and is characterized by the fact that amylase and/or glucoamylase are blended as a component of the gum. The present invention provides a novel caries-preventing gum that strongly acts on wheat (wheat, potatoes, etc.) to decompose it into glucose and alcohol, thereby imparting a caries-preventing effect.

There are foods that can easily cause cavities, and many of these foods are sugar-based, starchy-based foods that children like, such as biscuits, jam, chocolate, honey, and cocoa, which tend to stick to the teeth. As long as we eat and drink, it sticks to our teeth.
Moreover, the mouth is kept at an appropriate temperature and humidity, and is contaminated by countless microorganisms, resulting in bad breath. Furthermore, plaque and tartar are deposited on the surface of teeth, causing dental diseases.

Therefore, cleaning your teeth helps keep your mouth clean and prevents dental diseases. When cleaning your teeth,
The most commonly used method is a toothbrush and toothpaste, but this method often damages the gums and leads to bad results.Also, simply brushing in the morning and evening during busy days can save you time during the important hours of the day and afternoon. Most are neglected. In addition, children often dislike brushing their teeth, and instead, parents take measures such as giving them chewing gum, but this contains a lot of sugar, which further accelerates the development of cavities. I hate doing that.
