Methamphetamine and Your Teeth

February 9th, 2010. Published under Methamphetamine and Tooth Decay. No Comments.

Meth can contain battery acid, cold medicine, drain cleaner, antifreeze, acetone or lye.

Acidic content causes dry mouth leading to gum disease and extensive  tooth decay.

Teeth are damaged by grinding and clenching.

Teeth become stained, blackened and rotting- most fall out within a year.
