Don’t Want To Smoke Anymore? Tell Us.

Are you tired of smoking? Strike that. Are you not necessarily tired of smoking but you know that cigarettes and all forms of tobacco are bad for your oral health? As a result, you’re thinking that it’s probably time to kick the habit and make sure you’re taking all precautions you can to keep your smile and your entire body healthy? Well, we applaud your plans and future efforts! Of course, about those future efforts: Do you know how to go about keeping yourself motivated? We can help.

Remember The Motivating Factors

It’s very easy to keep up the motivation for quitting smoking when you have a solid handle on the horrendous side effects that can come with it. As far as your oral health is concerned (though smoking can affect your entire body), remember the following as you embark on your non-smoking journey:

  • Smoking increases your chance of gum disease
  • Smoking increases your chance of experiencing oral cancer
  • Smoking increases your chance of decay
  • Smoking can leave your smile stained and damaged
