LIMA ILLESCAS, Miriam Verónica et al. Efectos de azúcares totales sustitutos de sacarosa en la salud bucal. Revisión bibliográfica. Rev Eug Esp [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.2, pp.101-113. ISSN 2661-6742.  https://doi.org/10.37135/ee.04.14.11.

A bibliographic review was carried out on the effects of sucrose substitute total sugars on the state of oral health. The scientific articles were in the following digital scientific databases: Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science and Ovid. The sources used were freely accessible, 49 of the manuscripts gotten by the search were discarded and 23 were used. 43.5% of the articles included showed results of clinical trials on chewing gums with xylitol, 39.1% about other compounds (stevia, magnolia, erythritol, calcium phosphate), 13% narrative reviews and the 4.4% meta-analysis. Chewing gums made with sucrose substitutes stimulate salivary production, neutralize and raise its pH. That is why, its role in promoting oral health is recognized in several scientific publications. The anticariogenic effects of xylitol were established in various studies. There were not enough studies on the effects of the substances: stevia, d-tagatose, magnolia, erythritol and calcium phosphate.

Keywords : Oral Health; Dental Caries; Sweetening Agents; Xylitol.
