Do teeth bleed after stopping smoking? -

WHAT WERE YOU SMOKING ???????Teeth don-t bleed when you stop smoking but your gums might as smoking inhibits your body-s natural inflammatory responses. When you quit smoking your gums return to normal and can respond the way they are supposed to, that is - they will bleed if they are inflammed. If you have quit smoking and your gums are bleeding then you need to clean your teeth either more regularly or more efficiently or both.I don-t know, I haven-t been able to teach my teeth to smoke yet.

But seriously, neither the teeth nor gums should bleed after stopping smoking (at least I don-t know anyone who has had that problem)No, Never, Smoking may cause bleeding of gums and gums heal after leaving. Teeth also becomes healthy and you will improve your oral hygiene after leaving smoking in case you brush your teeth twice a day.no way. I haven-t heard of that.No. At least mine didn-t.well done for quittin, Yes well mine and my husbands both did when we quit. we used some oraldene mouthwash for a month or so , that did the trick. hope this helps..hell no not even if u stopped like somkeing illegeal drugs u teeth would probly only turn yellowYes, you are likely to see an increase in bleeding gums after stopping smoking. Smokers are more likely to develop periodontal disease than non-smokers; however, because of the suppressed inflammatory response in smokers, they may not even be aware that they have it. Suppressed inflammatory response means no bleeding, but the disease is still actively progressing (bone loss, loose teeth, tooth loss). About 10-12 weeks after quitting smoking, there is an increase in bleeding, possibly due to a recovery of the inflammatory response. You may notice heavy bleeding during brushing and flossing and having your teeth cleaned. Be sure to have good plaque control. Brush after each meal, floss daily, and rinse with Listerine. Almost 100% of 30-40-year-old heavy smokers have periodontitis. After quitting smoking, although you see bleeding, the disease progression slows. You should visit your dentist and discuss that you have quit smoking and have a cleaning. He/she will be able to give you advice on how to have healthy teeth and gums.nothe dentist told me my gums where bleeding after giving up smoking because smoking makes the tissue and blood vessles contract stopping blood from flowing freelyYes, your gums do tend to bleed less if you are a smoker. This is a problem for dentists when trying to properly diagnose periodontal disease because bleeding during a probing exam is usually indicative of disease. I would imagine that if you are having problems that were being masked by smoking, that when you stop, you would experience more gingival bleeding. However, if the bleeding is spontaneous (not when brushing or flossing), it could be indicative of some other serious health problem. I would advise seeing a dentist to have a thorough exam to find out more.I-ve never herd of it, but thats not to say it doesn-t happen.
What the hell are you smoking!?!noThis sounds like gingivitis, you need to see your dentist. Switch to an electric toothbrush and brush twice a day, then use a mouthwash.
And don-t brush too hard either, because that can make your gums bleed.yes. and for many other reasons. try corsodyl
