Smoking cannabis causes dry mouth leading to increased risk of tooth decay, tooth erosion. tooth sensitivity, gum disease, burning mouth, and difficulty in chewing , speaking and swallowing. More problems to worry about such as an weakened immune system, fungal infection and changes in the tissue of mouth leading to oral cancer. Is this enough to make you STOP?
