Today, Dr. Thomas Brickey of Natural Smiles Dentistry wants to give teens the bottom line about tobacco use: there is no such thing as a “safe” or “safer” tobacco product. Every tobacco product contains nicotine in varying amounts—and not only is nicotine addictive, but it can also harm the brain. (Many people don’t realize the brain continues developing until the mid-20s or even early-30s.)
Oral cancer is one of the fastest-growing cancers worldwide, and Dr. Brickey wants all their young patients to enjoy long, healthy lives. Get in touch with us at Natural Smiles Dentistry with any questions about tobacco use and oral health today.
