If it hasn't happened to you yet, it will..especially if you have younger siblings, or babysit or whatever. Anyway, if you have had it happen, you know the horror of trying to get it out and often resorting to cutting it out. Anyway, here's a little trick to help: use peanut butter. That's right, regular peanut butter. Massage it around the gum ..use a lot and leave it in that section for a few minutes. The gum will slide right out! Hope this helps!

Yes...peanut butter is great. Ice will also work. You apply ice to the gum and it will freeze and then snap right out. I actually like peanut butter a little better though.Thanks for the post.> If it hasn't happened to you yet, it will..especially> if you have younger siblings, or babysit or whatever.> Anyway, if you have had it happen, you know the horror> of trying to get it out and often resorting to cutting> it out.
