Ashley,
 
Thanks for your insight and you are absolutely right. My father developed oral cancer on one of his cheeks do to smoking. He has since had surgery and chemotherapy is now in remission, thank goodness! He revealed to me that he really never though about oral cancer and was most often worried about developing problems with his lungs.
 
Oral cancer is no joke,
 
Thanks

One very serious condition that often goes un mentioned is that of oral cancer. Smoking increases a number of other oral diseases as well. It’s said that approximately of half of periodontis cases are attributed to current or former smokers.
