Did you know that smoking can cause your teeth to rot?

All my molars are messed up, and someone just told me today that smoking causes teeth problems. The only thing I though smoking did was make teeth yellow. To tell you the truth, I am pretty upset that neither my dentist or anyone in the dang educational system I grew up in here in Georgia ever told me that smoking causes teeth problems. If I knew that smoking cigarettes caused teeth problems, I would have the same option towards tobacco as I do towards meth. I am really upset, and I don't understand why I didn't know this. Is it common knowledge that tobacco causes your teeth to rot. I can't afford another dang root canal.

Smoking does NOT cause your teeth to rot. Bad oral hygeine (or heredity) causes teeth to rot. As long as you do not have hereditary problems and you brush your teeth, your teeth will not rot, smoker or not....





Anti-tobacco people will blame anything and everything on smoking. If you are a smoker and you say that your monkey that lives in another state died, they will say it is from 2nd hand smoke 2 states away!
Reply:wow that really sucks. Smoking is bad! Don't do it!
Reply:yes i have seen others suffering. i do not smoke at all so i dont need to worry.
Reply:Are you or have you been on meth? Maybe that is what they are talking about. It is a fact that meth will make your teeth rot.


Smoking tobacco is not healthy for anything either.

Reply:i'm sorry you weren't aware of the serious implications of smoking. smoking causes a lot of health problems. it makes your hair and nails brittle, damages the elasticity of your skin, causes tooth decay not to mention the effects on your entire internal system.
