Oral Health and Quitting Weed

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by Shippo1992, Sep 24, 2018.

  1. Hey guys.

    So, I into day 10 of having quit weed after having smoked it heavily/daily for 7.5 months. Been going through the typical withdrawal symptoms. Haven't been taking the greatest care of my teeth and I'm now starting the process of getting dental work in check. Anyways, what I'm here for is about gums and jaw. I've noticed my gums can be a bit sensitive/painful in some places, as well as some pain with my jaw/gum at the back of my mouth too. I've read into how smoking causes gum damage, but also how gums heal once quitting (like blood rushing back into them and such) and that jaw pain can be common during this. Is this true and should I be worried? Just need some piece of mind here.

    Thanks.

  3. Every educated toker knows smoking weed is the worst thing for your health

    and indeed cancer can be caused by weed or any other product you insert into your body at about 800 f/c

    the constant abuse your gums get from blasting with super heated weed

    is the same damage as ciggie users and over time you get long in the tooth

    as your gums recede due to age and smoking cigs or weed

    as the return to normal? is highly doubtful,

    but stopping poaching your gums is a sensible approch to oral hygiene

    good luck

  5. Take care of your teeth and gums or lose teeth later in life... also there is a link between gum disease and heart disease something like if you have gum disease your chances of heart disease are increased by 20% as well as other organ problems...

    i would vape vs smoking, at least you eliminate all the gunk from smoke when vaping.
