Everything people ask before their first jar.
Common questions
What does hydroxyapatite gum actually do?
It supports your daily oral care routine: chewing after meals freshens breath and stimulates saliva, and hydroxyapatite is a mineral tooth enamel is naturally made of. It is not a medicine and does not replace brushing.
Is AWKENFOREST gum sugar free?
Yes. Sweetened with xylitol — no added sugar, no aspartame.
Does it replace brushing?
No. It supports your routine between brushes; it does not replace brushing twice a day.
How many pieces should I chew?
Most people chew two pieces after meals, five to ten minutes each time. It is a habit, not a regimen — there is no counting beyond that.
Which size should I start with?
The 30-piece Trial jar if you are new. The 180-piece jar if you already chew daily — it has the lowest cost per piece.
What are the ingredients?
Gum base, xylitol, hydroxyapatite, and natural mint flavor. A short list on purpose — each ingredient earns its place.
Is it safe to chew every day?
It is a food product, chewed like any gum. If you have a specific dental condition, your dentist knows your teeth — we don't.
Where do you ship?
United States, shipped from a US fulfillment center. International shipping is on the roadmap.
What is your return policy?
If your first jar is not for you, contact us within 30 days of delivery and we will make it right.
Do you plan other flavors or formats?
Roadmap yes, promises no. New sizes and flavors ship only when they pass the same three rules the first product did.
