Is Vaping Ruining Your Smile? Gum Disease and E-Cigarettes
Story at-a-glance
- Vaping increases plaque buildup and harmful bacteria in the mouth, leading to gum disease and long-term oral health issues
- E-cigarettes suppress gum bleeding, making it harder to detect early signs of gum disease while still causing inflammation and tissue damage
- Nicotine in vapes reduces blood flow to the gums, slowing healing and making infections more difficult to fight
- Flavored e-cigarettes cause more gum irritation and oxidative stress compared to unflavored ones, worsening periodontal damage
- Quitting vaping completely is the best way to restore gum health, reduce inflammation and prevent long-term damage to teeth and gums
