Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate suppression of Streptococcus mutans(S. mutans) colonization by long-term xylitol consumption among pregnant women who can easily get bad oral hygiene status during pregnancy and breast feeding. Participants were voluntarily recruited for a pregnant women's oral health prevention program, classified into two groups(a control and a xylitol group), and then followed for 18 months. Stimulated whole saliva was collected in the afternoon(1:00-3:00 p.m.) at baseline, 6 months, 12months, and 18 months. Information regarding oral health behavior(tooth brushing frequency and regular dental visits) was obtained via a questionnaire. S. mutans counts of the xylitol group decreased considerably between baseline and the re-examinations at 6, 12, and 18 months. Although the S. mutans counts decreased for all time points compared to baseline in the control group, these differences did not reach significance except 18 months. Regular chewing of xylitol gum over a long period may lead to decrease the colony counts of S. mutans.
