I prefer gum. It last longer and makes my entire mouth feel fresher and not just part of my tongue. I prefer Eclipse gum. I think the taste last the longest.

Either - however, look at the ingredient list and look for Xylitol as high up the list as possible.
Xylitol is a natural sweetener that the body regards as fibre rather than sugar that has the unique property of inhibiting the adherence of bacteria to the teeth. If bacteria can't stick to the teeth then you are less likely to get cavities. Sounds like a good plan to me!
Be aware that constant chewing will stress your jaw joint (TMJ) and continuous sucking of candies will generally result in an increase in cavities.

Mix in the two to have a better, fresher, clean mouth.
