While studies have shown that it doesn\u2019t\nwreak <em>quite<\/em> as much havoc on your oral health as smoking cigarettes,\nit\u2019s still not wonderful for your teeth and gums. Are there any dental issues\ncaused by vaping? Can it result in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nobledds.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">dental emergency<\/a>?\nContinue reading to learn how vaping affects your dental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Vaping Affect Your Teeth and Gums?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaping can cause some oral health issues, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Excess bacteria. <\/strong>The aerosol in\ne-cigarette vapor gets trapped in the crevices of your teeth, increasing\nbacterial buildup. This means you have a bigger risk of tooth decay and gum\ndisease. <\/li><li><strong>Dry mouth. <\/strong>Smoking and vaping decrease\nthe amount of saliva in your mouth. Since saliva washes away leftover food\nparticles that cause cavities, you want more of it, not less. <\/li><li><strong>Inflamed gums.<\/strong> A 2016 study showed that\npeople who vaped had higher rates of gum inflammation. This is a common symptom\nof gum disease, which can cause a whole host of other health issues. <\/li><li><strong>Oral cancer.<\/strong> People may think that vaping\nis less likely to cause cancer than smoking, but cancer growth happens\ngradually. Since no one knows the long-term effects of vaping yet, we can\u2019t say\nfor sure whether it\u2019s more or less likely to cause oral cancer. However, it\u2019s\nbest to err on the side of more careful. <\/li><li><strong>Longer healing time.<\/strong> Consuming tobacco,\nwhether that be in the form of chewing, smoking or vaping, slows down the\nhealing process after any oral procedure. It also may cause the body to reject\nany dental implants if they have not finished integrating into the jawbone. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Vaping Cause a Dental Emergency?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because vaping can cause cavities, it can increase your risk\nfor a dental emergency. One of the most common dental emergencies is a severe\ntoothache. More often than not, a toothache that seemingly appears out of\nnowhere actually has tooth decay to blame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, vaping weakens your tooth enamel. This leaves\nyour teeth more sensitive to hot and cold temperatures. It also means your\nteeth are more likely to get broken in falls, sports injuries, or from chewing\non hard or sticky substances. That could constitute an extra, expensive trip to\nyour emergency dentist\u2019s office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bottom line is that vaping is bad for your health, no\nmatter how cool you might think it looks. Even if it\u2019s safer for you than\ncigarettes, it\u2019s still bad for your health, and not just your teeth and gums.\nIf you need help quitting vaping, ask your dentist or doctor for resources to\nhelp you kick the habit. And if you\u2019ve never picked up a vape, don\u2019t start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Joseph Noble has been improving smiles in San Antonio\nfor 20 years and counting.
