But what damage does tobacco cause to your mouth, gums, and teeth? Smoking can lead to bad breath, tooth staining, periodontal disease, tooth loss, and oral cancer.

Sensitive teeth

Tooth sensitivity isn't something you should have to endure, and in most cases, it can be easily treated. Sensitivity can be treated and usually cured, but if left untreated, it's likely to worsen over time.

Dental abscess

Abscesses cause inflammation and swelling and can be very painful. They are usually caused by an infection and can worsen if left untreated.

Oral health and sport

Ninety percent of the young adult population participates in some form of physical activity, either as a way to stay fit or as a professional. This is why it's important to understand and prevent the risks associated with sports.

Diabetes

The presence of these oral manifestations can lead to discomfort and/or oral pain, impeding proper nutrition; they can also worsen the prognosis of diabetes, as they frequently alter, impact, and aggravate processes affecting certain organs. It is very interesting to note that awareness of these manifestations can alert the dentist to the existence of an undiagnosed diabetic patient.
