I've been a 1-2 can Copenhagen wintergreen for six years. Today was my last
Day on this crap. I am sitting here wondering if I have cancer. My tooth
Is sore and my cheek is swollen I've been feeling around my cheek for days trying to get
The courage to go to a doc. The inside of my mouth is ok except
For a receding gum but man I am freaked. Never putting this garbage in again and
Not using patches. Has anyone ever had symptoms like this before? Let the quit begin.
I had a problem like yours, my teeth were fine but I had really fucked up my gums where I kept the chew and had exposed root etc.
The first thing I did was go to the dentist and had him look, he wanted to take out the teeth where I had fucked up the gums, I told him no. So he sent me to a Periodontist who checked everything and said we can fix everything but it would require a painful procedure knows as root planing\deep scaling and I would have to see her every 3 months, and I would have to do a bunch of special shit to take care of my teeth daily.
This was a couple months ago and I feel great now, best I have in a long time.
So like the other guys said quit being a pussy and go see the dentist, if you dont like what he says go see another one. Tell them ahead of time, I chewed for XXX years and i am XX days quit and trying to fix stuff.
I was not talked down to or scolded at all, they were more than happy to assist in my quit and get me fixed up.
