I am 18 years old, 6 feet 1 inch tall, and around 200 pounds. i have been using chewing tobacco for about two years but for about the last year i mostly just used the pouches of dip. in the last two months i have started using regular long cut dip. my gums on the bottom teeth are starting to get really low and i don't know what to do or who i need to go see
Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the lowering gum level could be because of the gum infection secondary to deposits. The tobacco chewing and placing the quid near to the gums can also cause gingival recession. consult a oral physician and get your teeth cleaned and maintain oral hygiene. stop the habit of using tobacco because it might cause cancer. i hope my answer will help you take care.
