Yes, you can safely eat gum even with a permanent retainer in your mouth. A permanent retainer will naturally broke after a period of time. You will have the choice to ask an orthodontist to glue it back or to live without it.

Be warned that some new studies demonstrated that after many years of wearing a permanent retainer, your mandibular bone may be hurted.
