Krystal08 0 Posted November 29, 2012 I had surgery the 16th of November nd im on the smoochies stage of food nd I have a bad taste in my mouth even if I drink a lot of Water nd brush my teeth. Would it hurt to have gum? Or the fruity mentos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted November 29, 2012 Bandsters should avoid gum because if you swallow it it could be an issue for the band according to my Dr. Mentos have sugar calories so I would opt for the breath strips over candy. Check with your Dr to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

♕ajtexas♕ 3,771 Posted November 29, 2012 I chew gum all the time too. Haven't swallowed gum since I was a kid. Lol. I did ask my doctor & he has no problems with gum chewing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
