    When I was growing up, I chewed the Juicy Fruit gum, but haven't had
    chewed gum in years. Now, I hear that Freedent is better, and I think
    that's because it limits cavities, but not sure if it won't pull your dentures loose.

    I was never much of a gum chewer, I would buy it once in a while.
    When I got my dentures I tried Freedent and others that were supposed
    to be ok but they made a sticky mess.
    Last fall I had a sudden craving for gum and bought a pack of Juicy
    Fruit, the regular kind, and had no problems. I was really surprised and enjoyed chewing away for a while. After a few sticks my gum craving was satisfied and haven't had any since then. (I still have some laying
    around here).

    I'll have to look for some the next time I'm out shopping.

    I remember chewing them while playing baseball with the local Optimist
    club. It sure beat chewing tobacco. <SPIT!> <CHING!> :P
