Was wondering if i stop smoking weed will my teeth/gums heal?

Will help a lot: Smoking will cause constriction of blood vessel in the gingiva, gingival fibrosis, root surface roughness, and ultimately insufficient tissue repair due to reduced vascularization. Stop smoking weed will definitely help your teeth and gums heal better.
