Did you know that smokers are 7 times more likely to develop periodontal disease than non-smokers?

We often can recognize the cosmetic defects it may cause, but what about the more serious dental and health problems?

The American Dental Association (ADA) discusses that smoking and to***co products are responsible for oral health problems that include:

-Dulled sense of taste and smell
-Accelerated gum diseases (gingivitis)
-Slow healing from surgery on the teeth and gums
-Greater susceptibility of infection
- Oral Cancer

What if I can't quit?

Although cessation is the best adoption to improve oral health, we recommend for patients to have a strict daily routine of brushing and flossing twice a day. Make sure to use an interdental toothbrush (aka tongue scraper) and rinse with mouthwash in your daily routine!

Wishing everyone a happy and safe Labor Day!

Our office will be closed for Labor Day. We look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
