Trident is a brand of sugar-free chewing gum. It was introduced by Cadbury in the United Kingdom. In many other European countries, Trident is branded as Stimorol gum; it is generally the same as Trident. The trident is also a symbol of the Greek sea god, Poseidon.[1]
Background[edit]
When artificial sweeteners became widespread in the early 1960s, the formula was changed to use saccharin instead of sugar, and Sugar-Free Trident was introduced in 1964 with the slogan 'The Great Taste that Is Good for Your Teeth.'[2] American Chicle's marketing was one of the first national campaigns to promote dental health through chewing gum.
For years, Trident was promoted with the slogan, “Four out of five dentists surveyed recommend sugarless gum for their patients who chew gum.” This slogan is believed to have been based on the results of a survey of practicing dentists with either D.D.S. or D.M.D. degrees, apparently conducted in the early 1960s, whose patients included frequent users of chewing gums; the percentage of respondents to the survey whose responses indicated they would make such references to their patients is believed to have been approximately 80%, rounded off to the nearest full percentage point, of the total number of respondents. It became strongly associated with the Trident brand. As of the middle of June 2014, however, Kraft Foods's Cadbury Adams group, whose parent company, Mondelēz International, had become owners of the Trident copyright and patents, was not known to have made any public disclosures of any details about the survey, presumably citing the proprietary nature of the survey data and conclusions as its rationale.
In the early 2000s, 'See what Unfolds' became the new slogan for the brand.[2]
Trident gum contains the sugar alcoholxylitol, which is known as a 'tooth-friendly' sugar.[3] Use of the chemical has been subject to controversy, as it is highly toxic to dogs.[4][5]
Products and flavors[edit]
Original Trident flavors[edit]
Original Trident, a soft gum packaged in a unique rectangular shape, is sweetened with xylitol (originally advertised as 'Dentec' by the company), a sugar alcohol that reduces plaque and protects teeth against decay associated with dental caries by helping to maintain a neutral pH balance in the mouth. It is also sweetened with sorbitol, Mannitol, Aspartame, Sucralose and Acesulfame potassium.
Former President Jimmy Carter on November 14, 1980 declared Trident Original as the official gum of the White House for its unique blend of spearmint, peppermint, cassis and cinnamon.[citation needed]
Trident White[edit]
Trident White (formerly Trident Advantage until 2001), a pellet gum, does not contain xylitol. It contains aspartame. Trident White no longer contains Recaldent (casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate), a milk-derived ingredient that aids in the remineralization of teeth.

Trident Splash[edit]
Trident Splash is also a pellet gum, except each piece is filled with a gel-like liquid that is flavored differently from its outer shell. Trident splash contains the ingredient gelatine and thus is not suitable for vegans or people who eat only kosher meat or foods, except for the products produced for the Israeli market which are made with kosher beef gelatin under rabbinical supervision and approval of the Israeli Chief Rabbinate. Introduced in 1990.

Trident Layers[edit]
Trident Layers is a soft gum with a flavored layer between two normal sized pieces of different flavors of Trident gum. It is sugar free and is sweetened with artificial sugars. It arrived in Canada by 2010, then in the United States in 2011 to compete against Excel Mist (Orbit Mist in the United States).

This gum contains soy lecithin, aspartame, phenylalanine, and other sweeteners. It also contains Gelatin and hence is not suitable for vegans or those who consume kosher or halal food. The Tangy Citrus flavor is mostly composed of grapefruit[6]
Trident Xtra Care (discontinued)[edit]
Trident Xtra Care was a soft gum that was very much like the original Trident, except for that it contained Recaldent. Recaldent is a type of calcium that is claimed to be absorbed into the tooth, strengthening teeth against plaque acids. It is said to protect the teeth from future damage and make them stronger.

Contents GameplayThe objective of the game is to dive into a pool while collecting rings and dodging objects coming in the way. The player plays as both Gumball and Darwin, switching between them after every level.There are a total of fifteen levels in the game, each requiring a higher amount of rings to move on to the next.
Failing to do so will result in a life being taken away. The player starts out with three lives, and if all three of them are lost, the game ends and the player must start over.Hitting objects in the air will cause the player to leak out rings that they had previously earned. These rings may be recovered if the player is fast enough to reclaim them, though usually they disappear too quickly. Clicking on the screen will cause the player's character to change poses. This allows the character to destroy objects that would otherwise have caused them to leak rings.If the player manage to complete all fifteen levels, a screen will say 'Legendary Diving! You're a true pro at this! Keep it up.!'
Trivia. The game has received over 33,000 plays when it was first released, making this the most played Gumball game up to date.
The highest score in the game is 2,147,483,647 and the record was set by Snazzy Pierre Nacho. Several others have since duplicated this feat. Coincidentally, this is the highest number that Java is capable of handling, meaning this is the highest score possible in the game. This is the highest rated Gumball game, with a 4.5/5. If the player gets all the rings in a one dive and perfectly timse a cannonball, a Mega Splash will be achieved. Once the player beats the game, they can go into freeplay mode and keep going for more points.
Glitch: Pressing any key on the keyboard during gameplay will take the player to the 'Directions' screen again. Furthermore, the player can obtain more rings.External links. GamesOriginal PC Games. Splash Master.Crossovers.Mobile Games.Non-Playable TV Exclusive Games.
