Effects of Smoking on Oral Health

Smoking and A Wisdom Tooth

Smoking can affect your healing process after a wisdom teeth removal surgery. It’s advisable to quit for a few days so you can recover faster.

In the news

According to the American Dental Association (ADA), smoking can also affect your sense of taste and smell and delay your recovery after a tooth extraction or other dental procedure.

In addition, the tar from cigarette smoke stains your teeth, causes bad breath and can discolour your tongue. The only way to remove these stains is with a professional cleaning in the dentist’s office.
