abstract = {Dental caries is a common chronic disease affecting children. It is caused mainly by acidogenic bacteria influenced by numerous risk factors such 
as cariogenic diets and host characteristics, but also incorrect oral hygiene,socioeconomic conditions and other environmental factors dictate the prognose 
of this worldwide disease. Children are especially vulnerable due to their dental structure, diet and motor skills. Prevention includes good oral hygiene and a 
healthy diet. Xylitol, a natural sugar alcohol derived from plants, is a suitable option for caries prevention in children. It has a lower glycemic index and does
not cause dental caries. It has antibacterial effects, stimulates saliva flow, and helps neutralize acids.},
