Any connection between tooth decay and cannabis?

No connection at all. It just stains your teeth like cigarettes do.

It was the answer I was hoping for, but didn't expect. Report It

Reply:probably not, but maybe between eating junk and sugary foods and then passing out without brushing your teeth has something to do with both.

Reply:No, but perhaps the cannabis user is less concerned with personal grooming ?





It makes some people's teeth yellow but this is just as likely to be the tobacco.





Hey I mean, remember Bob Marley's teeth!
Reply:yes an no pending on if the person\s don:t brush there teeth / brushing teeth will help to reduce decay but not brushing teeth will produce decay due to the levels of thc which is an oil based liquid an will stain ur teeth then build up to decay / the thc will turn to an liquid when smoked which is an oily resadue hope this gives u what ur lookin for
Reply:Not really although there is a strong connection between tooth decay and Crystal Meth, because it causes nervous tension which makes you grind your teeth, and also makes you crave sugary drinks which had bad effects, obviously.

Reply:Anything that dries the tissues of the mouth makes the teeth more susceptible to decay. Smoking tobacco or weed will do it.
