In essence, it's sugar, or fake sugar, or whatever. Sugar dissolves when subjected to liquid (in this case your saliva) therefore dissolving the gum. :)

Can gum dissolve?

Gum doesn't dissolve in the same way that many other substances do; instead, it can break down over time due to exposure to heat, moisture, and saliva. Chewing gum typically remains intact in the mouth and does not dissolve in water. However, certain ingredients in gum can be broken down by bacteria or enzymes in the digestive system, but the rubbery base of the gum remains largely unchanged. Ultimately, gum is designed to be chewed rather than dissolved.

Why doesn't gum dissolve in the mouth?

Gum is insoluble in water and also resists breakdown by the mouth's enzymes.As the name implies.........it's gum. From my experience, touching gum or sap of tree is very thick and sticky. Tis just like chewing on rubber band...it never seems to go away or finish.it's somewhat stubborn. the only difference between the sap/gum of a tree and a chewing gum is that the latter has sweetners and flavours which quickly fade away while we keep on chewing and chewing.
