“…These considerations receive support from an earlier suggestion that the cells of MS possess at least two glucose transport systems, one of which is fluoride-insensitive [18]. Other studies reported that xylitol prolonged the effect of chlorhexidine therapy on MS [19]. Chlorhexidine and xylitol appeared to act synergistically on MS and S. sanguis [20].…”

“…Diş çürüğü, MS varlığı yanında yenen şekerin tipi ve yeme sıklığı, dişlerin fluoridle karşılaşma durumuna göre direnci, tükü-rüğün özellikleri, genel sağlık durumu, ağız bakımının uygunluğu ve sosyoekonomik durum gibi çok sayıda faktörle ilişkilidir (22) . Ağız boşluğunda yüksek düzeyde MS barındıran kişilerde bu bakterilerin sayıca azaltılması diş çürüğünün önlenmesinde büyük önem taşır (6) . Son yıllarda MS'nin basit, hızlı ve güvenilir tanısı PCR ile yapılmaktadır (9,19) .…”

“…Ksilitol, diğer şeker alkollerinden örneğin sorbitolden farklı olarak ağız bakterilerince fermente edilmez ve böylece asit oluşumu da önlenmiş olur (6,16) . Ksilitolün antimikrobiyal etkisi, metabolik reaksiyonlar yoluyla bakteri üremesini engelleyerek gerçekleşir.…”

ÖZET Bu çalışmanın amacı, on-on iki yaşlarındaki ilköğretim okulu öğrencilerinin piyasada satılan ksilitollü ve ksilitolsüz sakızları gözetim altında günde üç kez beş dakika olmak üzere dört hafta boyunca çiğnemeleri sonucu, tükürük mutans streptokokları (MS), laktobasil (LB) ve maya düzeyleri ile Streptococcus mutans ve Anahtar sözcükler: diş çürüğü, ksilitol, mutans streptokokları, sakız SUMMARY Effect of Chewing Xylitol Chewing Gum on Cariogenic Microorganisms The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chewing gums with and without xylitol three times daily for 5 min on probation for 4 weeks, on salivary levels of mutans streptococci (MS), lactobacilli (LB) and yeast and the presence of Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus in primary school children at 10-12 years old.The study group was consisted of 29 students (mean age=10.6 years) among the 98 students whose salivary MS level was detected as >10 5 cfu/ml in a boarding primary school. After oral and dental examination, the group was randomly divided into three sub-groups as chewing the gum with xylitol (G1, n:12), chewing the gum without xylitol (G2, n:11) and chewing no gum (G3, n:6). G1 and G2 were chewed the gums three times daily for 4 weeks (5 days a week)

“…Studies have also shown that xylitol chewing gum can increase salivary flow leading to improved buffering effects of the saliva. 16 Furthermore, xylitol has the ability to reduce the growth of oral bacteria by inhibiting glycolysis. When xylitol is taken up by oral bacteria, it is incorporated as xylitol 5-phosphate which inhibits the enzymes involved in metabolism.…”
