A member asked:
If i quit smoking will my gums turn pink?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
maybe: Healthy caucasian gums are pink. Smoking decreases blood supply to the gums therefore after quitting the true nature of your gums will be revealed - if healthy they will be pink - if not they will be red and bleed more easily.
