Is chewing gum bad for fillings?

I have fillings in and I'm chewing gum. Is this a bad idea?

Answers:
No, actually sugar free gum is good to chew because it removes any debris left on your teeth after eating, and you can't find time to brush them. For everyone else's advise. If the filling comes out you either have another cavity brewing or shoty dental work!

YES! You can lose your fillings by chewing gum.
yes.bad idea!
I think it is bad my friends filling like fell out, but it depends on the denists recomendations.
you should stop chewing gum and to go the dentist so they can check your fillings
looool my teeth were so weak when i was chewing Trident gum a chunk of my tooth fell out fillings and all. then i had to get more fillings for that. it was the gum's fault
ofcourse it is BAD. if you must chew, chew sugarless and i'd chew with the teeth that do not have fillings.

4 outta 5 dentists recommend sugarless gum for their patients WHO CHOOSE to chew gum. They don't recommend the gum chewing - but if you must - sugar free!
Yup
Ehh, I always chew gum and my fillings have always been okay. The reason I had to get new ones were cause I was chewing this really hard food or something.
It should be fine. I have fillings and chew gum all the time. However, I do recommend sugarless gum.
