The Foundation evaluates consumer oral health care products to ensure that manufacturers' product claims are clinically proven and not exaggerated. An independent panel of internationally recognised dental experts study all the claims carefully to make sure they are true, and backed up by reliable scientific evidence.

Currently there are over 150 approved products on sale in 80 countries around the world. Look out for products that carry the British Dental Health Foundation, International Health Care or International Dental Health Foundation 'Approved' logo.

Continually sucking on sweets and lollipops containing high levels of sugar is very bad for your teeth as it is like bathing them in sugar.

Fortunately, many companies are looking into producing sugar-free alternatives.

Polo Sugar Free Mints contain sugar-substitute, sorbitol, and are actually good for the teeth as they increase the flow of saliva and reverse the early stages of tooth decay.

The mints will carry the 'British Dental Health Foundation Approved' logo on packaging in Britain and the 'International Dental Health Foundation Approved' logo overseas.
