Vaping may be a step up from smoking, but I’ve learned it can still mess with my teeth if I’m not careful. Here’s what I do to keep my TEETH intact:
I Drink Plenty of Water – I make sure to sip water before, during, and after vaping. It keeps my mouth hydrated and helps prevent dry mouth and bacteria buildup.
I Avoid Acidic Drinks – I’ve cut back on coffee, energy drinks, and sodas while vaping. These drinks can really mess up your teeth if you’re not careful, so I stick to water or something tooth-friendly instead.
I Brush Gently – I’ve learned to wait at least 20 minutes after vaping before brushing my teeth. I also use a soft-bristle toothbrush to avoid damaging my enamel.
I Use Soft Drip Tips – I switched to plastic or silicone drip tips for my vape. They’re way safer than metal ones, which can chip or crack your teeth if you accidentally bump into them.
Vaping feels like a better choice for me, but it’s not harmless at all, so the above extra care totally deserves the effort!
