Question

Why does the chewgum get stucks only on your skin and not on your teeth?

Answer 1

And in your hair.  The gum does get stuck to teeth.  It will pull out a filling or crown.

Answer 2

because the saliva in your mouth keeps your teeth wet, and the gum can't stick to them. usually your skin is not wet, so the gum sticks to it.

Answer 3

because ur teeth r wet cuz of the saliva in ur mouth.........& cuz the surface of ur teeth is smooth & ur skin has little hairs that the gum sticks 2

Answer 4

your teeth are very smooth and lubricated with saliva.  Try spitting on a piece of skin that has no hair and sticking gum to it...probobly won't stick nearly as well, which is why it also doesn't stick on your cheeks
