Smoking Leads to Dental Issues

Smoking leads to many dental issues including:

  • Bad Breath:That would be the first sign, it’s not just you who affected but it’s the people around you as well.
  • Be courteous, no one likes to talk to someone who has bad breath.
  • Teeth Discoloration:Your smile, it’s not just going to be yellow it’s all kinds of yellow brown color. Yikes!
  • INCREASED buildup of plaque and tartar. You’ll see it mainly on your lower front teeth but that’s only what you can see!
  • DELAYED healing process: Extractions, periodontal treatment and oral surgery.
  • INCREASED risk of developing oral cancer.
  • Think twice about picking up that next cigarette, is it worth your body breaking down? These are just some risk you take when smoking.
