Chewing gum is helpful in that it will moisten your mouth, stop bad breath, keep you from clenching your jaw, help clean your teeth, and aid in concentration.

OK... sugerfree is good, it makes you salivate more, this is the 1st step in digestion.. the enzymes in saliva break down food, so it works on food stuck in your teeth... so if you cant get to a toothbrush.. chew on a piece of suger free gum

Chewing a pice of sugar free gum after meals is supposed to help fight tooth decay only if you don't have access to a tooth brush, otherwise just brush , floss, and rinse. : - )

If you are in a situation where you can't brush it is a good substitute until you can, like lunch or dinner dates.
