Drugs and Dental Health: Understanding the Connection

Description

Drug abuse can lead to significant dental problems, from tooth decay to gum disease. Substances like methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin cause severe oral health issues, while prescription drugs and alcohol can contribute to dry mouth and enamel erosion. Poor hygiene habits and unhealthy lifestyles further exacerbate the damage. Addressing dental health in recovery is essential for overall well-being, boosting self-esteem, and preventing future health complications.
