Went to the dentist to get a deep cleaning under the gums. The Dr. told me that I had what is called a calculus build-up directly related to smoking. Coincidentally I recently took measures to quit smoking, so this won't be an issue moving forward. However, you should have seen this black they scraped out from the bottom of my tooth roots under the gums. Not to mention the pain that was inflicted during this procedure.
So to all of you smokers, get your teeth checked out thoroughly now before it turns into periodontal disease like mine almost did. |

I didn't know you could have a Calculus buildup, and I feel like I should have a math joke to go with that but I don't.
PS: weed or tobacco? |

My teeth were in great shape on the surface, mainly from the exercise they receive from nibbling on your mom's nips.
It was my gums that were in bad shape.

tobacco. I assume weed would do the same thing if you were smoking the equivalent of a pack every two days or so. |

That's the only thing I will miss is pissing off non-smokers when I light up. Now I have to be one of you s |

I've been smoking Marlboro Milds (a pack every two days [average]) for about 5 years now, and it's hard as to quit. Never tried patches or any of that , but I heard Chantix is the key to success (about $12 a pill/$140 for the full prescription). I think this summer I am investing in that.
I had my teeth checked last month and everything was ok except for a few pubic hairs from Cory's mom that were jabbed between my gum line and the tooth.

Ouch!
On the bright side, they double as elevator cables if you're ever in a pinch. Don't ask me how I know... |
