Smokers are at a higher risk of developing dental problems.

Key takeaways:

– Smokers are twice as likely to experience gum disease than non-smokers, as chemicals in cigarettes weaken the oral tissue.

– Smokers are at a high risk of developing mouth, throat, or tongue cancer.

– Teeth loss is common among smokers due to tartar build-up, gum disease, jaw bone loss, and tooth loss.

Don’t let this habit ruin your smile or your health and talk to your dentist about the most effective ways to quit.
