Any danger of chewing gum continuously rather than lodging in cheek as recommended?

I'm a bit of a chewing gum fiend anyway, so I have been chewing the nicotine gum as I would a normal piece of gum, rather than chewing and then leaving it lodged in side of cheek. Does anyone know if there is any danger of this?

i am using the gum.

and i do the very same,i have one piece in for hours.

it has not done me any harm,and i am now on day 63,

i dont worry,the only thing i care about is not smoking,i average out about 5 pieces a day,sure beats smoking 20 cigs.

good luck to you

Don't think it's dangerous, however if I chewed it for any length of time I used to end up with gut ache which apparently is common if you use it like regular gum
