I declines, as I am not allowed to chew gum. But then I thought, 'what if she is trying to tell me something' so I asked, and she said I had bad breath. So I went against Doctor's orders and chewed some gun for a few minutes. I'm always glad when someone is open enough to tell you you stink. |

The constant chewing motion can play havoc with your temopro-mandibular joints. I am trying my best to avoid a bone graft from my thigh, which is what the Doctor has suggested. It's quite easy to give gum up, when faced with that option. Besides, it looks so ugly don't you think? |

The other thing about chewing gum is that when you chew anything your brain sends a signal to your stomach that food is on the way. So all those gastric juices start filling up your stomach to prepare the food for the rest of the journey. If you don't send it the food it is waiting for those gastric juices then can tear up your stomach. It's kinda like drinking a soda but you didn't. |
