Does SPLENDA® Brand Sweetener (sucralose) cause tooth decay?
No. SPLENDA® Brand Sweetener, or sucralose, the sweetening ingredient in SPLENDA® Sweetener Products, does not promote tooth decay. Studies also show that the retail Packet and Granulated SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener products have significantly less potential to cause cavities than sugar; although they contain a small amount of carbohydrate to provide texture and volume. SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener Minis and SPLENDA® MIST™ No Calorie Sweetener will not promote tooth decay. This is because they contain little or none of the carbohydrate ingredients found in Packet and Granulated SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener Products. However, the foods or beverages that they are consumed with may contain carbohydrate.
