We’ve been hearing for decades how dangerous smoking is to many aspects of our health. As dental professionals, our focus is particularly on the dangers to oral health, including unsightly stains on teeth at the less serious end of the spectrum, to a massively increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease, to life-threatening oral cancer. More recently, va**ng and e-cigarettes have emerged as an alternative, but are they any better?

Because these particular ni****ne delivery mechanisms are so new, there isn't as much data about their effects, but the evidence far shows a link between e-cigarettes and poor oral health. No matter how ni****ne is consumed, it restricts blood flow to the gums, contributing to gum disease. An iScience study showed that far more e-cigarette users have gum disease than people who don't.

It's difficult to know the long-term dangers to something so new, but researchers are seeing periodontal disease (typically an adult disease) in younger patients who v**e, as well as an increase in cavities.

The term "v**e" is also misleading. This isn't water v***r that contains ni****ne, it works more like aerosol — essentially ni****ne hairspray, for the mouth. That doesn't sound as appetizing, does it? **ng

We’ve all heard of the active ingredient in toothpaste: fluoride. It supplies tooth enamel with important minerals to keep it strong and it protects against tooth decay. It's the one ingredient toothpaste must contain to earn the American Dental Association's Seal of Acceptance. But what else is in toothpaste? 🤔

1. Mild abrasive ingredients help scrub the surfaces of our teeth clean as we brush (and it doesn't take more than a soft-bristled toothbrush and gentle brushing to get the job done).

2. Foaming detergents help the toothpaste reach every tooth. (Fun fact: the foam is why actors rarely use toothpaste when they brush their teeth onscreen. It's too messy for TV!)

3. Humectants keep toothpaste from drying out, so that it can come out of the tube in a smooth piece.

4. Flavoring and sweeteners make toothpaste taste good, but they can't include actual sugar and still get the ADA Seal of Acceptance. Toothpaste for adults is usually a strong, minty flavor, but that can be overpowering for kids, which is why theirs often tastes like fruit or candy. 😋

All of the top recommended toothpastes for kids contain fluoride, and it's safe when used in the correct amounts. That means a smear no bigger than a grain of rice for toddlers and a glob the size of a pea for kids aged 3-6. 👍 Parents should also supervise their kids and encourage them to spit instead of swallow.

We all need to sleep well to feel our best. 😴 In the United States alone, up to one in five habitually snoring children and over 18 million adults have sleep apnea, a sleep disorder characterized by repeated interruptions to normal breathing during sleep. It makes it difficult to achieve a restful night of sleep, with numerous short and long-term effects, including several to oral health.

Those with sleep apnea are at an increased risk of developing severe gum disease and temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). They are also likely to have dry mouth, which increases the risk of gum disease and tooth decay. 😬

It is so common to experience dental symptoms with sleep apnea that the dentist is often the first healthcare professional to observe the signs and diagnose the condition. That’s one good reason of many to keep up with regular dental appointments — not just for the sake of oral health, but also overall health! 😃

Common ways sleep apnea is treated include nighttime oral appliances that adjust the position of the jaw and tongue and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines.
